The first indepth history of Langemark German Cemetery to be published with the English speaking visitor in mind, Studetenfriedhof to Soldatenfriedhof tells the story of the evolution of Langemark German cemetery from its creation in the Great War, the influence of the Nazis before and during WW2 and its evolution into the modern cemetery of today. Dispelling many of the myths and legends that surround the cemetery, Studetenfriedhof to Soldatenfriedhof takes the visitor on a detailed self-guided tour, following the route planned by its designer in the early 1930's. The clever use of "then and now" images helps the visitor visualise the evolution of the cemetery and explains the "who, what and why" of it all whilst walking in the footsteps of the past.

Roger Steward is a professional battlefield historian living in the Ypres Salient. Over the last decade he has accompanied thousands of visitors on battlefield tours of the Ypres Salient and has invested time and effort into researching the history of the German Cemetery at Langemark. Roger was the Chairman of the Royal British Legion Ypres Branch between the years of 2014 to 2016 and had the honour of laying a wreath on behalf of the branch during the Last Post ceremonies at the Menin Gate during the 100 year commemorations in 2014 and 2015. He has also been interviewed on Sky News and BBC Radio and assisted BBC researchers in the run up to the centenary of the Battle of Passchendaele.
