TheseWereOurSonsTHESE WERE OUR SONS: Stories from Stockwell War Memorial

by Naomi Lourie Klein

Every name is listed, with biographies for all those identified.

“The book is quite wonderfully moving and reminds us just how many families were torn apart in these streets that we love so dearly. The shock of reading of the sheer numbers lost, in our own neighbourhood, and the youth of so many of the fallen, makes me look at our war memorial with renewed humility and gratitude. It deserves a place in every Stockwell home.”
—Stockwell resident Joanna Lumley 

Available from www.elefantbooks.com.
