Today is World Book and Copyright Day and the final day of our "Mask & Book" project. On this occasion, as part of #LookInsideOurBook series, we publish online an English edition of "World Battlefield Museums Forum", an illustrated record of an international conference that took place at the Museum of the Second World War in Gdansk in September 2018. The forum brought together representatives of battlefield museums from several countries around the world.
