Notes
This book was presented to the Collection by Mr. Hubert Ross. The price quoted is our estimate of its value. The book is an illustrated collection of essays by leading historians on how the Great War affected Ireland. It finally provides an Irish aspect on the war, which - as has often been forgotten - saw over 200,000 Irish soldiers enlist in the British Army, and over 30,000 lose their lives. It relays the experience of ordinary Irish people during the conflict and chronicles the devastating impact the war had. Archival letters, diaries, wills and drawings, advertisements and photographs are reproduced in this interesting book. The book was edited by John Horne.
