Shell-Shocked Britain: Understanding the lasting trauma of the First World War

Millions of soldiers were scarred by their experiences in the
First World War trenches, but how new was what we now know as
'shell shock'? What treatments were on offer? And what happened

Writer and researcher Suzie Grogan reveals the First World War's
legacy for soldiers and looks at the impact of the Spanish
influenza outbreak, air raids on the Home Front, the trauma
experienced by the survivors, and why the conflict still
resonates into the 21st century.
