World War I claimed more than 900,000 British lives, and its legacy continues to be remembered today. Great War Britain: Norfolk offers an in-depth portrait of the county and its people during the war to end all wars. It describes the local reaction to the war's outbreak; charts the experience of individuals who enlisted; shares many first-hand experiences, including tales of the Zeppelin raids and spy hunts of the era; examines the work of local hospitals; visits Norfolk's POW camps; and explains how the county and its people coped with the transition to life in peacetime. Vividly illustrated with evocative images from the collections of the Royal Norfolk Regiment Museum, the Norfolk Record Office, and the amazing archives of Picture Norfolk and the Eastern Daily Press, it commemorates the bravery and sacrifice of Norfolk's people between 1914 and 1918.

The Norfolk Regiment on the Western Front: 1914-1918
Author: Steve Smith
Publisher: Fonthill Media
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 445
Book Description
Steve Smith tells the story of the five Battalions of the Norfolk Regiment who served on the Western Front using previously unseen photographs, diaries, accounts, and letters. He has also had full access to the Norfolk Regiment Museum archives. It is the men who served in the Norfolks who will tell this story. This book will interest readers nationally & locally as it not only studies the Regiment’s participation in well-known battles such as Ypres and the Somme, but also takes a fresh look at the lesser-known battles fought, battles such as Elouges in 1914 and Kaiserschlacht in 1918. Steve has considered the German perspective too, looking at the men who faced them at places such as Falfemont Farm in 1916. Using new evidence from the Regiment’s participation in the Christmas Truce, he separates the truth from myth surrounding the stories of football played at this time, a controversy that still rages. Steve has walked the ground over which they fought and fresh maps complement this research so the book serves as a history book for those at home and a guidebook for those who wish to get out and explore, down to trench level, the ground covered in its pages.
