Afterlives of War

A Descendants' History
This book documents the lives and historical pursuits of the generations in Australia, Britain and Germany who grew up in the shadow of the First World War. Although they were not direct witnesses to the conflict, through the intimate experience of coming after, they have played a key role in shaping the memory of the First World War since 1918

Afterlives of war documents the lives and historical pursuits of the generations who grew up in Australia, Britain and Germany after the First World War.

Based on ninety oral history interviews and observation during the First World War Centenary, this pioneering study reveals the contribution of descendants to the contemporary memory of the First World War, and the intimate personal legacies of the conflict that animate their history-making.
