The Path of Peace. Walking the Western Front Way

After a chance discovery in the archive of one of England's oldest schools, Anthony Seldon embarked on an epic 35-day pilgrimage from the French-Swiss border to the English Channel. The route of his 1,000 kilometre journey was inspired by a young British soldier of the First World War who dreamed of creating a "Via Sacra" that the men, women and children of Europe could walk to honour the fallen. Touching on grief, loss and the legacy of war, this book is both the extraordinary story of Seldon's walk and a triumphant rediscovery of what matters most in life.
