For Britain and her empire, the human cost of the First World War was worse than any other conflict in history, as almost a million British were killed and almost twice as many were injured, forced to live the rest of their lives with missing limbs, damaged lungs and mental disorders. The legacy of the Great War was just as deeply felt as the war itself and longer lasting, as an entire generation of children grew up without fathers. The book is the story of these men and their families, told in their own words, and depicts the dying months of the war, when victory was close , but would still claim the lives of tens of thousands. 21.
