A history of the First World War from the renowned broadcaster and writer, ahead of his 4-part flagship BBCTV series which will the centrepiece of the BBC's commemorative broadcasting for the 100th anniversary. Using a wealth of first-hand source material, this will bring to life the day-to-day experiences of the British over the course of the war, capturing the mood of the nation and explaining why there was continued support for the war even in the face of its horrors. Written with Paxman's characteristic flair for storytelling, wry humour and pithy observation.
