What is war really like? Here are stories of sacrifices and massacres, of battles fought on horseback and in the trenches, at sea and on land. Read about: the savage school teacher who betrayed his students to the Roman soldiers; the American hero who led his country to independence - only to be abandoned after the battle was won; and the football game between two fierce enemies that halted the First World War for a day. Find out in this collection of true stories how people survive in times of war - both on the battlefield and away from the action.
