The Best 500 Cockney War Stories by Bert Thomas
Shortly after the end of the First World War, the most popular London newspaper of the time, The Evening News, asked readers to send in their stories. Of the countless tales received, the newspaper selected 500 and compiled them into a book that is at once both amusing and poignant. This facsimile edition, complete with the original cartoons provided by famous wartime artist Bert Thomas, is a fitting tribute to the men who risked everything for King and country and whose voices and personalities shine out from the pages of this book.
Full of humour and laughter in the face of adversity' * BRITISH ASSOCIATION OF LOCAL HISTORY *
Bert Thomas was a British political cartoonist and during the First and Second World Wars was well-known as the creator of British propaganda posters.
