The Great War

Voices from the Western Front

E1    40m
This gripping, full length documentary takes full advantage of the unique voice recordings of veterans from the Great War stored in the sound archives of the Imperial War Museum. These recordings provide invaluable firsthand testimonies from British soldiers and airmen who lived through the carnage of the Great War. Combat is vividly described, but so is the everyday life of ordinary men living in the trenches and on the airfields of the Western Front. Their extraordinary firsthand accounts of the Great War are illustrated by the pick of footage and stills from the Imperial War Museum film and picture archives, one of the world's greatest repositories of such material.
