This wonderful link from the BBC covers a huge amount of First World War history. The Footballers' Battalion, Walter Tull, The Corinthians, the Christmas Truce and Jimmy Seed from Sunderland is a footballing case study, following his life before and during the Great War.
It is a thorough piece and really needs a read. Stick with it because it covers a very important period in the history of the game and of course Britain.
