Adam Hochschild will be speaking about his history of the First World War To End All Wars: A Story of Loyalty and Rebellion, 1914 – 1918
Friends House
173-177 Euston Rd
NW1
Adam Hochschild said: "The First World War changed the world for the worse in every conceivable way, but despite its folly and devastation people in Britain have one thing they should feel proud of. From 1914 to 1918, this country had the largest and most outspoken antiwar movement of any of the Western Allies, filled with brave, remarkable and largely unknown men and women who deserve to be remembered as national heroes."
Make sure someone is there so that our own gallant members are remembered
