If you have visited the National WWI Memorial on

Pennsylvania Ave in Washington, D.C. or have seen photos

of it since its unveiling in Sept. 2024, no doubt you have

been affected by the lifelike figures depicted on the “A

Soldiers’ Journey” sculpture. In her attempt to understand

war from the soldiers’ perspective, historian and

photographer, Briana Gervat emerged from the pandemic

determined to travel solo along the Western Front Way

amidst stifling heat and torrential rain to record the early 20 th

century scars that remain within the landscape. Tolling bells

at various hamlets can still be heard and the regrowth of

fragrant, blossoming wildflowers can still be seen permeating

throughout the overgrown trenches, rusted fences, and

scraggly barbed wire. This enthralling travel journal details the sights she witnessed, the

people she encountered, and the fears and joys she experienced as she traveled along

WWI’s terrain to complete her personal odyssey to “Remember Them”.

Briana Gervat is a poet, photographer, and art historian. Her prose, poetry, and photography have been published in anthologies, magazines, and online. She is the author of three travel memoirs: Mosaic, I Once Was a Pilgrim, and There Will Come Soft Rains.
