rolt968 Posted 17 July , 2015 Share Posted 17 July , 2015 I think the time has come to buy an atlas to find the places indicated by map references on the Western Front. What would people recommend? (Preferably but not absolutely, not too expensive.) RM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gem22 Posted 17 July , 2015 Share Posted 17 July , 2015 RM I'm not sure that anything exists that could meet your requirements but I have a copy of "Topography of Armageddon" A British Trench Map Atlas of the Western Front 1914-1918 by Peter Chasseaud. The main advantage of this book is that it contains an index of all 1 in 10,00 Trench Maps of the Western Front. It is a very useful book but I have never checked it to see if it contains all the maps in the index. It may well be sufficient for you but if not at least it will identify the trench maps you need to purchase to fill in the gaps. Hope that helps Garth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolt968 Posted 24 July , 2015 Author Share Posted 24 July , 2015 Thank you Garth, I have ordered a copy. (People wonder why I need a spare bedroom for my books!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolt968 Posted 1 August , 2015 Author Share Posted 1 August , 2015 It arrived last week and is excellent! (Though many more books that size and I will need another spare bedroom!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
