Books which tell the story of the Battlefront during World War One are numerous. Much fewer however are those which relay the store of the other equally important battlefront that took place, that of the Homefront. This book is yet another immense piece of work by Andrew Rawson, providing an important text for reading, reference and research for any First World War bookshelf. The author had written so many fantastic books; "The British Army Handbook, 1914-1918", and "The Somme Campaign" just being a few. This is another additional classic to his list. What the author continually does well in all his work, is write a book which can cater as much for the novice and learner of the Great War, alongside the embedded expert. This work tells the story of such a vital part of the First World War story. It is thoroughly reserved and broke down so so well structured, both as a book you can enjoy from start to finished, but equally as importantly, as an accessible reference book. Rawson has written..

On behalf of our families, I would like to thank you for giving us the opportunity of our parent's war time story being published in your latest book 'Escape Survive or Die'.
Never dreaming that it would come to this for all the world to read, on how the men survived on land sea and air, is unbelievable. The treatments and torture and conditions that they had to endure is amazing that anyone of them survived.
We owe so many so much that during that time in history they should never be forgotten.
Thank you for bringing to light their heroic stories, and the fascinating writings of your book.
Carol Payne (nee Durston ) Daughter.
