When news of the war broke out in 1914, nothing could prepare the citizens of Bath for the changes that would envelop their city over the next four years.

The story of Bath in the Great War is both an interesting & intriguing one. This book covers this historic citys involvement from the commencement of the Great War in July 1914, to the Armistice in November 1918, describing in great detail what happened to the city & its people, including their everyday lives, entertainment, spies & the internment of aliens living within the city.

Bath played a key role in the deployment of troops to Northern Europe as well as supplying vital munitions. Local men responded keenly to recruitment drives & thousands of soldiers were billeted in the city before being sent off to fight the enemy overseas. The city also played a vital role caring for the many wounded soldiers who returned home from the front.

As the end of the war was announced there were tremendous celebrations in the streets, but the effects of war lasted for years to come. By the end of the conflict, there wasnt a family in Bath who hadnt lost a son, father, nephew, uncle or brother.

When Serena & her lovely young stepmother Fanny decide to move to Bath, Serena makes an odd new friend & discovers an old love, Major Hector Kirkby.
