520 8  The First World War has survived as part of our national 
       memory in a way no previous war has ever done. This 
       collection of letters - which lay untouched for almost 
       ninety years - allows a unique glimpse into the war as 
       experienced by one family at the time, transporting us 
       back to an era which is now slipping tantalizingly out of 
       living memory. The Slaters - the family at the heart of 
       these letters - lived in Oxford. In the letters they wrote
       to each other and their friends at this time we see how 
       the war increasingly impacted upon each of their lives and
       the life of the world around them - rationing, Violet's 
       increasing involvement in radical politics, the deaths of 
       friends, the fear of Zeppelin raids when in London, the 
       endless discussions between Violet and Gilbert about how 
       to keep their son out of the trenches - and the growth of 
       Owen from schoolboy to soldier, serving as a junior 
       officer on the Western Front. Above all, in their privacy 
       and immediacy, their inconsistencies and false hopes, 
       these letters bring us as near as we can ever be to 
       understanding what people thought, feared, and hoped for 
       during these momentous years.
