This book tells the story of three small Lancashire villages and
their contrasting fortunes in the Great War. One was among the
fortunate few in England which passed through not only the First
World War but the Second without losing a single man - a 'Doubly
Thankful' village. The second survived the conflict almost without
loss, while the third lost a harrowing total of ten young men from
its tiny population. The stories of these villages and the triumphs
and tragedies war brought to them have been painstakingly
researched by the author, who has painted compassionate portraits
of some of the men who returned, and some of those who did not. A
fascinating historical adventure.
