GREAT BRITAIN'S GREAT WAR
PAXMAN, JEREMY
The images we have of the First World War – a Tommy buried in the mud of the Western Front; the
pointing finger of Lord Kitchener; the memorial poppies of Remembrance Day – all reinforce the idea that
it was, in the end, an utterly pointless waste of life, and very little more. So why did we fight it so willingly
and how did we endure it for so long? Using a wealth of first-hand source material, Jeremy Paxman
brings vividly to life the day-to-day experience of the British over the entire course of the war, from
politicians, newspapermen, campaigners and Generals, to Tommies, factory-workers, nurses, wives and
children, capturing the whole mood and morale of the nation and explaining how life and identity in Britain
were utterly transformed, not always for the worse, by this experience. Rich with personalities, surprises
and ironies, this broad narrative history paints a picture of courage and confusion, doubts and dilemmas,
and is written with Jeremy Paxman's characteristic flair for story-telling, wry humour and pithy
observation.
