Published weekly by The Illustrated London News during the years of the Great War (1914–1918), each issue chronicles the devastating theatre of war through striking photographic reportage, detailed battlefield maps, and incisive written dispatches — making it one of the most significant primary sources of wartime visual journalism ever produced.\n\nA collection of these issues is nothing short of a window into history itself, presenting the war not through the sanitised lens of retrospect, but with the immediacy of contemporary witness. The editors and correspondents of The Illustrated War News documented every major front — from the muddy trenches of the Western Front to the sun-scorched campaigns of Gallipoli — with a journalistic rigour that both informed and shaped public opinion. Each surviving copy stands as an irreplaceable record of a world in crisis, and a set such as this raises a compelling question: what untold stories still wait within these yellowed, storied pages?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50948300931291,"sku":"2026100012939-SECONDHAND","price":50.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/61c3cdf3-4e8d-4ff3-98f9-f7fdc35972a3.png?v=1793104035","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100012939-secondhand-the-illustrated-war-news-51-60","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
