Uncle Charlie Comes Home Bateman, David Summary "David Bateman's uncle was one of the many men listed as 'missing' in action during the First World War, and was the inspiration for this remarkable piece of local history which traces the fate of servicemen from the small town of Westerham in Kent during the Great War." "Westerham being typical of the hundreds of communities affected by the conflict of 1914-1918, Uncle Charlie Comes Home is also a broader social history of the war, examining life on the home front and tracing the course of the war through the eyes of those who volunteered, or were conscripted, for service in France, Belgium, India and Turkey."--BOOK JACKET.
