The 1914 battlefields from Mons to the Marne
On this tour we will follow in the footsteps of the original BEF, from the first clash with the enemy, through mile after mile under the August sun, to the strategic and decisive defeat of the German advance on the River Marne and then the advance of the BEF to trench warfare above the River Aisne.
