EDITORS COMMENTS
The poignant image on the front cover of The War Budget magazine from January 17, 1916, encapsulates the emotional toll of war on the British soldiers during World War I. The illustration depicts a British Tommy, dressed in winter gear with a fur or goatskin gherkin, deeply engrossed in a photograph of his wife or sweetheart. The soldier's expression conveys a sense of longing and nostalgia as he reads the letter held in his hand. The First World War, which began in 1914, had already taken a heavy toll on the lives of soldiers and civilians alike. The long winters in the trenches added to the hardships faced by the soldiers, making the comforts of home all the more cherished. The War Budget magazine, published weekly, aimed to provide soldiers with news from home, as well as entertainment and educational content to help them cope with the challenges of war. The photograph and letter in the soldier's hands serve as a poignant reminder of the emotional sacrifices made by soldiers and their families during the conflict. The image resonated deeply with the readers of The War Budget, and the magazine's covers featuring soldiers reading letters or gazing at photographs became a recurring theme throughout the war years. This powerful image offers a glimpse into the emotional lives of the soldiers on the front lines, and serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war. The War Budget magazine provided a valuable service to the soldiers, offering a connection to the world beyond the trenches and a reminder of the love and support of their families back home.
