EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image showcases the first page of a letter penned by Albert Auerbach, a brave officer serving in the Royal Fusiliers during World War I. Dated 5 March 1916, the letter was written from the Savoy Palace Hotel in Alexandria, Egypt, where Albert's regiment was stationed at the time. The elegant letterhead bearing the insignia of the British Army and the Savoy Hotel's crest adds an air of formality to the correspondence. Albert's handwriting is clear and confident, revealing the care and thoughtfulness with which he crafted each word for his beloved sister, Lucy. The letter's content remains a mystery, but the knowledge that it was written during such a tumultuous and historic period adds depth and intrigue. The 1910s were a time of great change and upheaval, with the First World War raging across Europe and the Middle East. Soldiers like Albert were far from their homes and families, braving the harsh realities of war and the unfamiliar landscapes of foreign lands. This poignant letter serves as a reminder of the human stories that lie behind the history books, and the enduring bonds of love and family that sustained people through even the most challenging of times.
