Publisher’s Description:’The Great War is a powerful collection of stories by bestselling authors, each inspired by a different object from the First World War.’

Publisher’s Description:’This is the story of the ‘German Tommy’, Walter Schwarz told in full for the first time after years of research in Australia and Britain. It reveals why and how others helped the young man from Queensland – an Australian Army deserter – survive in an atmosphere that was poisonous at home and in battle for those of German blood who were, nevertheless, like Schwarz, loyal to king and country. Ken Anderson has gone behind the accepted facts to claim how official documents were altered and members of a secret society lied and swore false testimony to help Schwarz, acting on their oath to help a fellow member in distress.’

Publisher’s Description:’The Fateful Year by Mark Bostridge is the story of England in 1914. War with Germany, so often imagined and predicted, finally broke out when people were least prepared for it.’
