Little, Brown Book Group Letters From A Lost Generation : First World War Letters Of Vera Brittain And Four Friends

Nothing in the papers, not the most vivid and heart-rending descriptions, have made me realise war like your letters' Vera Brittain to Roland Leighton, 17 April 1915. This selection of letters, written between 1913 & 1918, between Vera Brittain and four young men - her fiance Roland Leighton, her brother Edward and their close friends Victor Richardson & Geoffrey Thurlow present a remarkable and profoundly moving portrait of five young people caught up in the cataclysm of total war.Roland, 'Monseigneur', is the 'leader' & his letters most clearly trace the path leading from idealism to disillusionment.Edward, ' Immaculate of the Trenches', was orderly & controlled, down even to his attire.Geoffrey, the 'non-militarist at heart' had not rushed to enlist but put aside his objections to the war for patriotism's sake.Victor on the other hand, possessed a very sweet character and was known as 'Father Confessor'.An important historical testimony telling a powerful story of idealism, disillusionment and personal tragedy.
