Every man who served in the Great War is now deceased, but they
have left behind them an enormous collection of oral history, which
captures the authentic voices of the front line soldiers. In Voices
from the Front, oral historian Peter Hart brings together accounts
from across the conflict, from soldiers, sailors and airmen, from
officers and privates alike. In the course of his research, he
talked to men who saw their friends die in front of them, who were
seriously wounded themselves, men who refused to fight on principle
and those whose indomitable spirit carried them through thick and
thin. Sometimes they were there at crucial turning points in the
war - going over the top in the slaughter of the Somme in 1916 or
punching through the German lines to victory in 1918 - and
sometimes they sweated, toiled and suffered on a forgotten front,
thousands of miles from home. In the vein of The Beauty and the
Sorrow, this is the First World War seen through the eyes of the
men who experienced it for themselves.
