Summary
The Christmas Truce of 1914 was a remarkable episode during World War I; a single fleeting moment of man's humanity amidst the horrors of war. This book takes a detailed look at the Christmas Truce, within the context of the social and political landscape at the time. It also considers the part that football may or may not have played during the truce and why it is that a football match has become the overriding symbol of the Christmas Truce in modern times
