Förlagets beskrivning
Evenwood was a pit village near Bishop Auckland, County Durham. As a result of the Great War 1914 - 1918, 70 men with associations to the Parish of Evenwood and Barony lost their lives. There are 48 names on the Evenwood War Memorial.
Behind every inscription there is a man who was a son or brother, husband or father. The purpose of this book is to tell their story.
Using the Evenwood Parish Magazines, census returns, press articles, service records, regimental and battalion histories, war diaries and acknowledged references particularly work by Chris Baker, John Keegan, Peter Hart and Capt. W. Miles, the author has built up family background, an historic context and used facts where known to tell the story surrounding their sacrifice.
It is hoped that many will be able to connect with the people mentioned in this book which will go some way to ensure that these men will never be forgotten
