The nation was at war. It was a time when there was no television, no radio and of course no social media. Telephones were a rarity and photography was in its infancy. News only came from the printed word which was censored, or spread by word of mouth. On the western front millions of men endured terrrible conditions. It was the time of trench warfare, massed coils of razor wire with death and destruction on an industrial scale. Poison gas was used as a weapon and tanks made their first appearance. However, on the home front, despite a horrible conflict just a short distance away and a distinct shortage of hard news from the battlefields, other local matters fascinated the reading public. Consequently, life in the country went on much as normal. The chapters in this book have been inspired by true events based on contemporary newspaper reports between 1914 and 1918. Some names and locations have been changed. Extra dialogue has been added to bring the characters to life.
