The First World War claimed over 995,000 British lives, including
the deaths of over a thousand 'Men of Lancaster', and its legacy
continues to be remembered today. This book looks at the impact
that the loss of so many men had on the community and offers an
intimate portrayal of Lancaster and its people living in the shadow
of the 'war to end all wars'. Drawing on detailed research
conducted by the authors and their community partners, it describes
the local reaction to the outbreak of war, the experience of
individuals who enlisted, the changing face of industry, the women
who defied convention to play a vital role on the home front, and
how Lancaster coped with the transition to life in peacetime once
more. The Great War story of Lancaster draws on all of these
experiences to present a unique account of the local reality of a
global conflict.
