The Great War was in many ways without precedent in the annals of history. Never had so many nations taken up arms at a single time; never had a war reached so deeply into the lives of people far away from the battlefield. Presenting an account of this critical and violent period of world history, and tying in with a BBC2 television series, this book focuses on the social and cultural effects of the war, supported by letters and diaries, poems and photographs.
