This is the tragedy of World War I, which the latest book by Jock Vennell chronicles. He tells the story of an Invercargill family five brothers - the Christophers. All but one served overseas at Gallipoli and on the Western Front and none returned home. They were among the more than 18000 young men who lost their lives fighting in the interests of the British Empire to which they and their country belonged. Through the lives and deaths of the four Christophers brothers, military historian Jock Vennell throws fresh light on the impact of Wwi on our small colonial society and its true cost in the destruction of so many - not only those killed but also those who survived. He looks at why so many answered the call to serve their King, country and Empire, even when other family members had been killed. And through for King and Country he looks and the hardships and horrors that so many of those soldiers had to endure.
