Peter F. Barton

    1 gennaio 1935 – 1 gennaio 2014

    Peter Barton è uno storico, archeologo e cineasta il cui lavoro si concentra sulla scoperta e l'interpretazione di materiali visivi dimenticati della Prima Guerra Mondiale. Dopo otto anni di ricerca nell'archivio dei panorami dell'Imperial War Museum, considerato la chiave per una piena comprensione del conflitto, Barton si è affermato come un'autorità riconosciuta. Le sue ricerche approfondite e gli scavi sul fronte occidentale contribuiscono alla conservazione e all'accessibilità di preziose intuizioni storiche. Le attività di Barton comprendono non solo la scrittura, ma anche la produzione di acclamati documentari e la guida di progetti per il recupero e la pubblicazione di panorami dei campi di battaglia.

      Walking in Torridon
    • A diversionary tactic from the Somme, the Battle of Fromelles was the worst-ever military disaster in Australian history, and is recognised as one of the bloodiest and most useless battles of the First World War. With the recent discovery of a mass grave and the disinterment of many diggers, it has now entered national consciousness in the same way as Gallipoli. Peter Barton's access to forgotten archives in Germany reveal that the Australian frontline troops gave away critical Allied secrets to the Germans. which not only led directly to the Fromelles massacre - but contributed to the failure of the Somme offensive as a whole.
