THE LITTLE MAGAZINE DEDICATED TO THE GREAT WAR OF 1914-1919 AND TO THOSE WHO PERISHED AND THOSE WHO RETURNED

WELCOME TO THE MAGAZINE

'The Great War' is published bi-monthly in January, March, May, July, September and November of each year (the actual subscription year runs from September to September). The 76-page, A5 magazine is only available via subscription and is not available in the shops.

The magazine aims to appeal to the widespread general interest in the Great War, and we invite contributions and submissions on all aspects of the war. No sphere of interest is precluded. Contributions in all areas, from letters and prose to memoirs and histories, are judged on content and interest to readers rather than on the ability to write well or to a professional standard. We are particularly interested in personal stories and experiences of those who served, and in the local history aspects often overlooked by other larger publications, such as the Home Front, Pals and Service soldiers and battalions, animals, women, grandfathers' and grandmothers' stories, etc. Photos and drawings are most welcome, especially if illustrating a text contribution. Nothing is precluded and submission is open to ALL.

We would greatly welcome material from overseas (outside the UK), provided it is in English.

Regular features include 'The Last Post', a page dedicated as a Roll of Honour to those who served, and subscribers are invited to send in details of names they would like to see included on the list. Names of men and women of any nationality will be accepted provided they served in some capacity during the Great War 1914-1919. The names of those who returned home and who may have no lasting memorial anywhere are particularly welcome for inclusion.

Other features include a regular 'Diary of the War' column, a 'Battle Honours' page, book reviews, 'Roll of Honour' page, 'Bairnsfather Fragment', news and letters pages etc.

There is also a small classified section for readers, historians and researchers, military and regimental museums, etc.

Visit the 'Contents and Subscription' page for sample pages and contents details.

Binders, back issues and Indexes are all available - please see the relevant pages.

The Great War magazine welcomes approaches from small groups, organisations or associations who would like to discuss making the magazine a part of their package of benefits to their members. This might be of particular interest to those who find it both expensive and time consuming to produce dedicated newsletters or journals and who feel that our magazine may be able to fulfil this role for them by including pages dedicated to their group alongside our regular material. Please contact the editor if you would like to discuss this further.
