Ghosts is this week's theme for my book display at Bennett Martin Public Library.The Angels of Mons: Phantom Soldiers and Ghostly Guardians by David Clarke. In August 1914, a British Expeditionary Force unexpectedly found themselves confronted by the main thrust of the advancing German army. Although they were vastly outnumbered, this highly-trained force of army regulars held off the attack so effectively that the Germans remained unaware of the tiny size of the force that opposed them. It was in these extreme circumstances that the wounded and dying soldiers were said to have seen strange angelic forms in the sky that protected them from slaughter. In this fascinating investigation David Clarke examines the history of such wartime legends and explores the likely truth behind the myth.
