Welcome to the BRITISH HOME FRONT IN THE FIRST WORLD WAR. This series was recorded at the UNIVERSITY OF ST ANDREWS in June 2018 to accompany a conference marking the contribution by the peoples of the British Isles to the national war effort. In this podcast, photo-journalist MICHAEL ST MAUR SHEIL talks about his photographic exhibition, FIELDS OF BATTLE, LANDS OF PEACE, and picks out some of the images that have a particular resonance for him.
