A World War One Blog: Ninety Years Ago

Friday, February 8th, 2008

Ninety years ago, Harry Lamin was a World War One soldier. He was writing home - connecting with loved ones. Now, those letters are posted online:

“This blog is made up of transcripts of Harry Lamin’s letters from the first World War. The letters will be posted exactly 90 years after they were written…”

It is fascinating reading. It is history and drama. One is struck, at times, by how little is different in ninety years - wars seem never to end.
