Faces of Liberation

The Groesbeek Canadian War Cemetery

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The Canadian War Cemetery in Groesbeek is the burial place of 2,618 soldiers from Canada and the British Commonwealth. Most died during the liberation of the Netherlands and the decisive Rhineland Offensive at the end of World War II. This book brings their individual stories to life and offers a moving tribute to the young men who fought for freedom, democracy and peace. With the names of all the fallen and the 1,012 missing on the Memorial Wall, this is a valuable unique reference work that permanently honours their sacrifices. The book tells the history of the cemetery through a transatlantic lens with a special focus on the efforts of Dutch volunteers and local heritage institutions to keep the collective memory alive. Through rich illustrations, this book shows how the Canadian War Cemetery in Groesbeek has become a living tribute to the ties between the Netherlands and Canada.
