War

This is a shrunk-down version of the compelling "Britain at War". It focuses on the impact of war in the streets and homes of Britain. It is a unique collection of photographs that allows an extraordinary vision of our nation in times of war. The 20th century saw Britain participate in many armed conflicts, from the First and Second World Wars to the two Gulf Wars and encompassing wars in Korea, Suez, the Falklands and the rest. This book focuses on the impact of these events in the streets and homes of Britain, as they were seen by ordinary people of the time. Made possible by a unique collection of photographs, this extraordinary vision of our nation in times of war is sometimes stirring, sometimes saddening, but entirely compelling.
