Description

Arranged as a diary around a calendar year, The War Diaries tells many individual stories from many wars down the ages, with several compelling entries for each day of the year. The diarists come from every walk of life; from faceless foot-soldiers to those charged with orchestrating battle, from the Home Front to the Holocaust, from famous writers, political leaders and fighting men and women to ordinary working people enveloped by events over which they have little influence. Together, they give an insight into what has been described both as 'the most exciting and dramatic thing in life' to 'the universal perversion'.
