"I have been studying and visiting the Western Front for 32 years, have been a tour guide for 8 years and WW1 Battlefields Alive has a consistent 5-star rating on TripAdvisor. In all that time I have come across many maps - most of them useless. What a revelation! The Fir Tree Aerial Map of The Somme is without doubt the most useful map that anyone has ever produced of the Somme area." Bob Findley, ww1battlefieldsalive.com
