Remembered in Broze and Stone evokes the years immediately following the First World War; when grief was still freshly felt in communities from one end of Canada to the other. This book tells the story of the nationrsquo;s war memorialsmdash;particularly bronze or stone sculptures depicting Canadian soldiersmdash;through the artists who conceived them; the communities that built them; and; above all; those who died in the war and were immortalized in these stunning sculptures raised in their honour. A century has passed since Canadians were scarred by the loss of more than sixty thousand sons and daughters; who now lie in faraway battlefield graves. Highlighting more than 130 monuments from coast to coast; Remembered in Bronze and Stone revives a pivotal period in history that changed Canada forever.
