Publisher Description The Christmas Truce of 1914 remains a moment of enduring fascination more than a century after the day the First World War guns fell silent. Now for the first time hundreds of first person accounts of this most extraordinary period of history have been gathered together telling the story in their own words of the soldiers who met in peace in No Mans Land.

The eye opening accounts of the unofficial armistice between German and British forces capture the trepidation and exhilaration, the curiosity, anger, joy and despair of that first Christmas on the unforgiving battlegrounds of the Great War.
