The Lost Generation of the First World War were boys who had barely left school before they found themselves living in trenches, drowning in mud and living in constant fear of death. This title includes letters from a group of schoolboys who attended Bournemouth Grammar and pays tribute to these boys who barely had the chance to become men.
