LOVE LETTERS OF THE GREAT WAR (PB)

A collection of profound, intimate and heartfelt letters written during World War One. Many are eloquent declarations of love and longing; others contain wrenching accounts of fear, jealousy and betrayal; a number share sweet dreams of home. Whether from British, American, French, German, Russian, Australian and Canadian troops living under the shadow of battle, or from wives and sweethearts left behind, they offer an intimate glimpse into the hearts of men and women separated by conflict, and show how love can transcend the bleakest and most devastating circumstances.
