Requirements: .PDF reader, 100MB
Overview: The First World War was one of the seminal events in world history. This book offers a unique perspective on the world’s first truly global conflict. It traces its history through the examination of both public and office items such as the Railway carriage where the the Armistice was signed, Siegfried Sasson’s letter of protest, the football kicked by the 8th East Surreys on the Somme and personal objects like the Queen’s chocolate box given to troops in 1914. Fully illustrated, each object will be accompanied by approximately 500 words of text that will give the item context and highlight its significance.
