In 1914 the world was plunged into the greatest slaughter of humanity in history. Of the 60,000,000 soldiers who answered the call of King, Kaiser, God and country, 14% or 6,000 died each day! These were not just big numbers; they were real people. This book tries to capture some of the people who were caught up in this tragedy, and tells their story, often in their own words. Here is revealed the heroism and tragedy of all who went 'over the top' between 1914 and 1918. British, German or American, no matter which side of the conflict the individual was involved, the heroism, bravery and sacrifice was the same.
