‘One of the most important collections of World War II photographs to be found in a generation.’ - Historian Dr Helen Fry, author of The Walls Have Ears: The Greatest Intelligence Operation of World War II

Reflections of War is a captivating anthology showcasing 150 rare images from the Second World War. This recently discovered archive of original press negatives has been thoughtfully restored, and the accompanying press notes meticulously researched, to reveal compelling human stories – many untold for over seven decades.

These powerful narratives span the breadth of the war, from its earliest days to the chaos of battlefields, from rescue missions to the evolution of wartime technology, and from the quiet endurance of the home front to acts of resistance, liberation and remembrance.

Against the backdrop of one of modern history’s darkest chapters, these stories resonate with hope and resilience. Told with emotional depth and historical insight, Reflections of War illuminates the profound experiences of those who lived through the Second World War, offering a poignant reflection on the human spirit in times of turmoil.
