Illustrated War News, February 9, 1916 at Wartime Canada

Wartime Canada is a site that is going go be a good resource for those interested in the Canadian perspective and experience during the Great War. Their About pages gives a good summary of their objectives:

“Wartime Canada was envisioned as a way to make the visual heritage of the nation at war freely available in digital form. Our emphasis is on the kind of material that is usually regarded as disposable – the very material that was omnipresent in the lives of Canadians in wartime.”

The Illustrated War News was a series of pictorial magazines released throughout the war and uses photographs, drawings, and explanatory text that represents the Allied, and particularly, the British perspective of the conflict.
