- Description
People who lived during World War One and soon after left behind lots of diaries, photos, letters, manuscripts, and other such documents that recorded events, people and places of that time. These first-hand accounts are called primary sources. They can also include media like film footage, audio recordings and newspapers, and objects or artefacts (eg paintings, tools, or clothing).
