Interweaving letters from men at the front with stories of life at home, and illustrated with over 300 photographs, this book describes the Great War’s impact on the city of Bath. It is a story of grief, suffering and anger – but there is laughter too. And although Andrew Swift tells the story of one community, this could be, with minor variations, the story of hundreds of other British towns and cities as they lived through the time when all roads led to France.
