Description

What is war really like? Here are stories of sacrifices and massacres, of battles fought on horseback and in the trenches, at sea and on land. Read about the savage school teacher who betrayed his students to the Roman soldiers, the American hero who led his country to independence - only to be abandoned after the battle was won, and the football game between two fierce enemies that halted the First World War for a day. Find out in this collection of true stories how people survive in times of war - both on the battlefield and away from the action.
