E-Books →The Greatest Day in History How the First World War Finally Came to an End

'This volume sets an example that will be hard to equal.' Daily Mail
Nicholas Best tells the story of the dramatic days that led to the end of the war to end all wars.
Best recounts the harrowing experiences those who fought on the Western Front, on the Home Front and those who worked to bring about the Armistice.
He successfully weaves the stories of exhausted troops who laid down their arms with that of the officials trying to negotiate the muddled terms of the Armistice. From the British signaller and organist rousing troops at a church service in Boulogne to the German civilians trapped in their apartments as gunfire rained down on the streets below, Best achieves a compelling, yet personal, narrative of those final crucial days.
