11:15am, 3 September 1939. The nation gathers round their radios to hear Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain make the announcement that has been feared for months: Britain will now be at war with Germany. 70 years on from that historic day, this book revisits the build-up, outbreak and first few months of World War Two.

Drawing on the archives of the Imperial War Museum, this book presents a lively portrait of life on the Home Front in the First World War. It is filled with accounts taken from diaries, letters and newspaper reports, and more.
