Lest We Forget: A Concise Companion to the First World War by Stephen Liddell

The First World War was a catastrophe that engulfed not just the continent, but the rest of the world as well. It cost millions of lives, and changed the course of the century.

'Lest We Forget' provides an accessible overview of that titanic struggle, which was the foundation for the modern world and modern Britain, covering both life in the trenches and also life on the Home Front.

It draws out the key events and themes that occurred throughout the conflict.
