Its really moving to hear to the voices of WWI. Hearing what they went through and how they talk about it often brings me to tears. I highly recommend if you have any interest in WWI or any history in general.

If it isn’t already, then this series & the IWM series of the same name should be required listening for schools & colleges. There’s nothing quite like hearing first-hand knowledge of the experiences of all of these brave men & women, both military & civil. As it appears to be...Read full review »

This was probably the best historical documentary I have ever heard. The voices and stories of so many veterans was very moving. I would like to find this on CD somewhere for home listening. A wonderful job through and through by the BBC!

The h1n1 ‘Spanish flu’ pandemic originated in Kansas US in January 1918, as reported by one Dr Minor, among some farm inhabitants then eventually at Funston army camp in the same state. One hundred years later, without any proof, pedestrian historians are trying to blame the Chinese.

Leaves an indelible image of each individual’s experiences, horrific as most of them must have been, all laced together into a complete, crystal clear picture by Dan’s insightful narrative.

If you enjoy a Ken Burns style documentary, you would enjoy this immensely.

It is cool to hear the veterans talk. They had some cool experiences and I get to learn what it was like during the war.

This is truly one of the most powerful and human of history podcasts. It is also wonderful that these old tapes are being reused. Yet another outstanding work from the BBC.

Thanks BBC and Dan Snow for this series of recordings. Listening to the personal minutiae of WW1 experience is fascinating.

This is the most amazing window into our past. The accents, the simplicity, the horror and the stories. Every voice you hear has now died. Wow. What a great series.

Mrs
As you asked in your podcasts, I am writing to say I enjoy the WWI voices very much -- I am listening to them in order & only up to #19 Sport in War -- Enjoyed the man who went swimming near Gallipoli -- They are all good -- Glad you did this as the people are aging. Thanks
