Description

The Long Journey Home from the Great War by Emily Mayhew is a poignant account of recovery and care in the aftermath of war. This book tells the story of soldiers who were wounded in combat, from their initial treatment in aid posts to their return to Britain for further care. It is also a story about those who cared for them - medical professionals, nurses, stretcher bearers, and chaplains who worked tirelessly to support the recovery of those injured on the battlefield. Through their stories, Mayhew sheds light on the often-overlooked experiences of those involved in the care of wounded soldiers during World War I. This book provides a unique perspective on one of the most significant events of the 20th century, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in military history or the experiences of those who served.
