The First World War, in Sharp Focus
An English chronicler of the trenches, and his wartime romance, captured in long-lost photographs.
During the First World War, Louis and Antoinette Thuillier created thousands of glass negatives containing photographs of soldiers. The digitized images are astonishingly clear: you can read the date of a newspaper folded on a lap.

From Kenneth Oppel, Best of All Worlds is a story of survival, teenage passions and an invisible enemy. What should be a relaxing weekend away from the city turns nightmarish when Xavier and his family wake up to find themselves trapped inside a dome. UKLA members RP for a chance to win #lucky13th
