The content appears in order of the sections of the Galleries. To orientate yourself, please reference the table of contents which lists the sections. Introduction to the First World War Galleries. These galleries are about the First World War. The ‘Great War’, as people called it at the time, lasted for over four years and cost millions of lives. In Britain, everyone was affected by the Great War, whether they were fighting or on the home front. In these galleries, men, women and children who experienced the war will tell you their stories. They will help show you:
They will do this in their own words and through the objects they gave to this museum. Getting around The galleries contain 14 story areas. They highlight the breadth and variety of our unique First World War collections. You are halfway round when you reach the Total War story area, which looks at the 1916 Battle of the Somme. If you would like a break at any time, please feel free to leave and come back later. 1.Hope and GloryAs the twentieth century dawned, Britain was one of the greatest powers on Earth. This small island nation ruled over a vast global empire. Its shipping dominated world trade. Its navy guarded the seas. Yet Britain's society was deeply divided. Many of its men, women and children were not able to enjoy the benefits of living in a rich, industrial nation. Despite its wealth, power and global influence, the British Empire was less secure than it appeared. Other countries were now challenging Britain. On mainland Europe, old rivalries and new ambitions created tensions. But few people expected these would lead to a world war.
