Anotace knihy

Daniel MacMillan never saw the battlefields of Passchen-daele or Vimy Ridge. A farmer in the tiny central New Brunswick community of Williamsburg, he experienced the Great War entirely from the ?home front.? But as his moving wartime diaries reveal, these years took a terrible toll on him, his family, his farm, and his community. In entries written between 1914 and 1927, MacMillan describes the hardships of running a farm in the face of acute labour shortages and the anguish of losing friends and neighbours in battle. His insider's account of supplying money, men, equipment, and especially food for the country as well as the troops documents the often un-noticed sacrifices of rural people in wartime and their post-war struggles to recover. War on the Home Front is volume 7 in the New Brunswick Military Heritage Series.
