Book of Remembrance
The Book of Remembrance is the account of
Port Hope, Ontario’s contribution to the Great War of 1914-1918. The original
booklet was compiled in 1919 as a tribute to the sixty-five men of Port Hope
and vicinity who died in the Great War. The Book of Remembrance was then, as it is now, the town’s attempt
to remember the fallen men as personalities and not just as names on the
cenotaph. It is also a record of how the people of a small town joined together
to support “their boys” overseas.
Only two copies of the book were produced in 1919. This is the first time
the Book of
Remembrance has been reprinted and now includes the names of all of Port Hope’s
soldiers along with their photographs. This special edition also includes
letters from the Front as published in the Port
Hope Evening Guide and photographs from the collection of the Port Hope
Archives.
The Book
of Remembrance is a snapshot of rural Ontario’s contribution to “the war to end all
wars” and a lasting tribute to those who paid the price for peace.
