520    The war of 1914-18 changed Britain forever. The movement 
       for Irish Home Rule strengthened, women were in jobs they 
       had never done before and, at the end of the war, were 
       granted the vote for the first time. Political and 
       military careers were won and lost and in all of these, 
       Winchester played its part. Whilst this is a book about 
       the Great War, that terrible conflagration which claimed 
       so many lives, it is also expertly covers how that war 
       touched the citizens of Winchester. It can be said that 
       every city, town, village and hamlet contributed to the 
       war effort but some cities, of which Winchester is 
       certainly one, were of crucial importance to the final 
       victory. It is true that Winchester was a major army depot,
       but it was also a city concerned with attempts to keep 
       some normality in life. There were stories of loss but 
       there was also humour, entertainment, fund raising, 
       patriotism and tales of the darker side of life. With over
       thirty illustrations, some never seen before, Winchester 
       in the Great War is a thorough account of the daily 
       hardships and triumphs of those living in the city during 
       one of the most defining and significant periods in the 
       history of Britain. [Elib]
