Description
Peace at last, after Lloyd George declared it had been 'the war to end all wars', would surely bring relief and a renewed sense of optimism? But this assumption turned out to misplaced as people began to realise that the men they loved were never coming home. The Great Silence recalls the period of adjustment following the war.
