From 2014 to 2018, people all over the world will be commemorating the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of World War I. They will not only be honoring those who lost their lives on the battlefield between 1914 and 1918, they will also be remembering everyone who played a part in, or lived through, those troubled times. "First World War Folk Tales" is a very special collection of legends and folk tales from the World War I era. This special centenary collection shows how elements of truth can become legend, how people often attempt to explain the strange and the mysterious through stories and tales, and how storytelling can ease the pain and the burden of war.
