WITH the outbreak of war in August 1914 life in Leicester was to change irrevocably. The huge demands to provide men to fight on the Western Front, combined with the need for an increased industrial output, led to great conflicts of interest.

An energetic anti-war campaign mounted by one of the Borough’s two Members of Parliament, Ramsay MacDonald, led to serious criticism, both during and after the war, of Leicester’s commitment to the war effort.

It tells the story of food and fuel shortages, the raising and training of local units to send to the Front, of the town being cut off in violent snow storms along with a myriad of other happenings during the greatest social upheaval of the 20th century.

This fascinating story takes the reader on a unique journey beginning in 1914 with the initial call to arms for the men of Leicester to join the Colours, through to the pageantry of the town being granted city status in 1919.

Good bananas!
Taste great, good sized, and while just barely ripe enough to eat when they arrive, they get better and sweeter every day.

Always high quality.
Never bruised, never green, good sized and tasty. Ripen evenly and generally last a while instead of spotting out in a day or never ripening at all. Always a good bunch of (6-7) regardless of product description (4-5). Stems are wrapped.

YUM
These are really fresh bananas and the color and size were perfect. They taste sweet and I will deliberately allow two to go over ripe for banana bread. Love the same size in the bunch. I'll order them again......the value alone makes me want to reorder them here.

Quality Bananas delivered from Amazon - Last long and not bruised!
Color me surprised to get GREAT bananas delivered from Amazon! They put a cover over the tip and they last even longer. This was my test to see how carefully food would be delivered given how easily bananas bruise and they passed with flying colors - I've ordered many times (and other food items too) since then and always received quality product. Now when the food items pop up after my order I click to order more with confidence!
