    For Six in Honor of Millions: World War I Memorials in Rural France and Australia
    • 2019

      Exploring the profound impact of World War I memorials, the author reflects on two nearly identical statues in France and Australia that sparked a journey of discovery. Through photographs of over 200 rural memorials, the book delves into the stories behind these monuments, revealing their connections to early 20th-century concepts of war, religion, and politics. With a personal antiwar perspective, the author emphasizes these memorials as symbols of loss and reminders of war's brutality, while donating all proceeds to charities addressing war's consequences.
