| Summary |
"World War One was war on a scale never known or imagined before. Between 1914 and 1918 some sixty-five million men took up arms. Ten million died in battle. Twenty million were irretrievably wounded in their minds or their bodies. Until now it has always been seen as a war in black and white. It was the only way pictures from the front and scenes recreated for the camera could be filmed. But it was not the reality, which happened in colour. Now, with the aid of new computer technology, the black and white of World War One has been faithfully and with minute attention to detail recast in colour" -- Libraries Australia |
