Product Description

Many troops passed through Southampton on their way to the Western Front & it played a vital role as a staging post for departing troops & those returning badly injured.

Many of men from Southampton also joined up & the enormity of human sacrifice that the families of Southampton were committed to as the war stretched out over the next four years was immense.

The Great War affected everyone. At home there were wounded soldiers in military hospitals, refugees from Belgium & later on German prisoners of war.

There were food & fuel shortages & disruption to schooling. The role of women changed dramatically & they undertook a variety of work undreamed of in peacetime. Meanwhile, men serving in the armed forces were scattered far & wide.

Extracts from contemporary letters reveal their heroism & give insights into what it was like under battle conditions.
