EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Map To Illustrate the Serbian Retreat, 1919" takes us back to a significant chapter in history during the First World War. Created by George Philip & Son Ltd, this map vividly depicts the harrowing journey of the Serbian army as they retreated through the treacherous mountains of Albania in 1915. Intriguingly marked on this map are various fortresses, fortified towns, and forts that served as crucial landmarks during this arduous retreat. The railways, main roads, and lines of Serbian retreat are also meticulously illustrated, providing a comprehensive visual representation of their challenging path. The accompanying historical account from W. Stanley Macbean Knight's book adds depth to our understanding of this tragic event. It reveals that amidst freezing temperatures, starvation, disease outbreaks, and relentless attacks by Albanian tribesmen along the way, approximately 240,000 lives were lost during this perilous expedition. As we gaze upon this colorfully detailed map print today, it serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought in World War I. It transports us to a time when nations clashed on European soil and showcases how geography played a pivotal role in shaping military strategies. Let us honor the memory of those brave soldiers who endured unimaginable hardships during Serbia's retreat through Albania's unforgiving terrain. May their sacrifice never be forgotten as we strive for peace and unity in our world today.
