I'd like to look at stuff other than the basic "trench warfare" narratives, in particular; I can think of lots of home-front stuff from WWII, but not so much WWI, so suggestions would be really helpful.
Do you know, I can't think of anything either, apart from Vera Brittain.
Good secondary sources can be found in the "war" section of Oxford's twentieth century social history paper...

Can I put in a plug for "The Great War and Modern Memory" by Paul Fussell even though it isn't strictly speaking about the home front?
