Told in the Huts: the Y.m.c.a. Gift Book Ymca

Told in the Huts is an illustrated book of personal contributions from soldiers and war workers, and was originally published in 1916 ?for the benefit of the Y. M. C. A. Active Service Campaign amongst our Soldiers, Sailors & Munition Workers, in all parts of the world.? Little has been compiled about the role the YMCA played in providing comfort and support to those involved in WWI conflicts, and that is why we chose to reproduce this wonderful book. We hope to provide an insight into the services provided by the YMCA in the trenches and the support provided to both civilians and servicemen. The book describes how individuals were involved and affected by war in this very touching and moving compilation of stories and poems.
