Description
The First World War was fought not by a professional army but by ordinary civilians like Harry Patch, who epitomised Edwardian Britain and the sense, now lost, of what Britain stood for and why it was worth fighting for. 'The Last Veteran' tells Patch's story, and explores the meaning of the war to the generations that have followed.
Description
Tells the story of one remarkable man among millions who fought in WWI and provides a very personal perspective of the war and its impact on British life.
