November 11, 2018, marks the centenary of the armistice signed between the Allies and Germany ending World War I. While the events of the war and its legacy are much discussed, this is the first book to focus solely on the day itself, examining how the people of Britain, and the wider world, reacted to the news of peace.

In this rich portrait of Armistice Day, which ranges from midnight to midnight, Guy Cuthbertson brings together news reports, literature, memoirs, and letters to show how the people on the street, as well as soldiers and prominent figures like D. H. Lawrence and David Lloyd George, experienced a strange, singular day of great joy, relief, and optimism.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A novel and wide-ranging examination of the conclusion of the war once solemnly declared to be the one to end all wars." (Kirkus)

I love history especially the wars. this book had a lot of good nuggets of History but it rambled on to make the point that Armistice Day was very very important. and continued to hammer that fact the rest of the book. if you really want to be placed in November 11th 1918 and feel what they felt the whole book will explain it to you in detail over and over again.

it sticks to one day and one day only
