Produktbeskrivning
Jeremy Paxman''s magnificent history of the First World War tells the entire story of the war in one gripping narrative from the point of view of the British people.

Life in Britain during the First World War was far stranger than many of us realizeIn a country awash with mad rumour, frenzied patriotism and intense personal anguish, it became illegal to light a bonfire, fly a kite or buy a round of drinks. And yet the immense upheaval of the war led to many things we take for granted today: the vote, passports, vegetable allotments and British Summer Time among them.
In this immensely captivating account, Jeremy Paxman tells the entire story of the war through the experience of those who lived it - nurses, soldiers, politicians, factory-workers, journalists and children - explaining why we fought it so willingly, how we endured it so long, and how it transformed us all.
