Description
In the aftermath of World War I, Britain found itself grappling with the stark realities of returning home heroes. The streets that once bustled with wartime fervor now echoed with the struggles and sufferings of those who had bravely fought. Roland Wales delves into the poignant narratives of these veterans, shining a light on their challenges in reintegrating into a society that had moved on without them.
With compelling insights, the book explores themes of mental health, disillusionment, and the often-overlooked sacrifices made by these individuals. It paints a vivid picture of their lives post-war, revealing how the echoes of battle haunted many long after the guns fell silent, leaving behind a legacy of untold struggles and unrecognized valor.
