Members of The Travellers Club, Pall Mall are constantly reminded of the 50 members and staff who died in service during the Great War by an imposing memorial which dominates the entrance to the Coffee Room. The purpose of this commemorative volume is to go beyond the bare facts of name, rank, decorations and service details, incised in the cold marble, and to learn more about these men, their backgrounds and interests, the main events of their lives, and the circumstances of their deaths.
