2014 marked the outbreak of the First World War. The Greater Manchester Archives and Local Studies Partnership realised that they held a wealth of information on the Great War in their collections, so working together they set up a volunteers' project to research and share some of the stories from their archives. Making use of the power of social media a blog site called GM1914 was set up. GM1914 has been used to share stories from the Greater Manchester area for the past two years, and it is hoped that it will also be a resource for the future, publicising the fascinating historical information held in the local collections of Wigan, Tameside, Stockport, Salford, Trafford, Bury, Oldham, Bolton, Rochdale and Manchester. This book was created using posts from the GM1914 blog - http://gm1914.wordpress.com/
