This is a unique and stirring collection that displays the extraordinary impact of war on the streets and homes of Britain. It provides a visual tribute to the 20th Century, with photographs from PA Photos. It is a beautiful gift idea, alone or part of this invaluable series. The twentieth century saw Britain participate in many armed conflicts, from the First and Second World Wars to the two Gulf Wars and encompassing wars in Korea, Suez, the Falklands and the rest. This book focuses on the impact of these events in the streets and homes of Britain, as they were seen by ordinary people of the time. Made possible by a unique collection of images from PA Photos, this extraordinary vision of our nation in times of war is sometimes stirring, sometimes saddening, but entirely compelling.
