The Great War took the lives of millions, among them sportsmen from Britain and the Empire. This new book explores how sport -players, fans and governing bodies - viewed the war, charting the links between patriotism and service among players and the desire for sport on the Home Front. It includes men from rugby, football, cricket and athletics.
