An Insight Into the First World War
A collection of memoirs, fiction, and other writings written about WWI and its effects by people who lived and experienced it. Warning: some views expressed in these books (eg. racism, sexism), though considered "acceptable" at the time, are absolutely not - please engage with caution. Please suggest any other books (caveat that they must be English or English translation) you can think of - I'm always looking to add more perspectives. Find a catalogue of this list in the comments.
