It was a conflict the likes of which the world had never seen, embroiling 15 nations and 65 million people, and fought with weapons unprecedented in their power to maim and kill. Drawing in on the millions of letters written home by American doughboys, nurses, drivers, and clerks; reveals what it was like to fight in the "Great War". The real story of World War I wasn't told in official reports. It came in battered, dirty envelopes more often than not marked "Somewhere in France." These letters were filled with stories of everyday life, of battles and boredom, loneliness and longing, and fear and fatigue. SAVE OUR HISTORY: DEAR HOME: LETTERS FROM WWI tells the story of war through the eyes of the American men and women soldiers who lived through it. It recounts, in their own words, the hopes and dreams, fears and frustrations of those men and women who were on the front lines of the First World War.
