Books, Manuscripts
Henry Allingham is the last British serviceman alive to have volunteered for active duty in the First World War and is one of very few people who can directly recall the horror of that conflict. In this book, he vividly recaptures how life was lived in the Edwardian era and how it was altered irrevocably by the Great War.
