The First World War claimed over 995,000 British lives, and its legacy continues to be remembered today.
Great War Britain: Liverpool offers a detailed insight into this great city and its people facing the challenges of wartime. This highly accessible volume explores the city's regiments, and includes many individual stories of men on the frontline and the vital role of women against the background of the changing face of industry, attitudes to conscientious objectors, hospitals for the wounded and their rehabilitation, peace celebrations, the fallen heroes and how they are commemorated.
Liverpool Central Library & Record Office have generously made available illustrative and other material from their extensive archives.
