Reseñas

An excellent introduction into what a soldier would experience when joining up or conscripted to World War I. It does not cover the battles but the daily way of life, including many illustrations and photographs.

Well written and finely illustrated history with extensive footnotes taking the reader through the genesis of Kitchener's New Army all the way to 1 July 1916.

Pretty superficial with quite a lot of the text just repeated as captions to the photos.

I am interested in Britain on the home front during the wars as I like to get an idea of what life was like for my grandparents and great grandparents during this time. The Shire Living Histories are great for this as they are well written and give a great overview of life at the time. They also have lots of photos to illustrate the topics. All that in a small and readable package. Highly recommended.
