Did WWI Propaganda Lead Millions To The Slaughter? | The Last Voices of WW1 | Timeline

This award-winning factual series draws on a unique collection of one hundred interviews with World War One veterans in which the soldiers and their loved ones relive all the heroism and heartbreak of the years from 1914 to 1918. Most of these men had never been interviewed before or since. All the voices are now silent.

The declaration of war in August 1914 was greeted with a wave of patriotic euphoria as the British Expeditionary Force was dispatched to Belgium and two million men volunteered for service. War seemed like a glorious adventure. But the experience of battle and the horror of the trenches was very different to what these men expected.
