Hunter, Nick

In the summer of 1914, life changed dramatically for millions of people. Europe was plunged into a devastating war that persisted for more than 4 years. This conflict, called the Great War or World War I, didn't just change the lives of the millions of soldiers who fought in it. It also had a big impact on families and children far from the frontline. Loved ones were often separated for long, difficult periods of time. This powerful volume explains the toll of the war through perceptive text, historical photographs, and insightful primary sources.
