The focus of this book is a few streets of the Launceston suburb of Newstead and the homes of World War One veterans who were part of the now little-known War Service Homes Scheme.
Who were the veterans who first lived in these homes? What were their hopes and challenges as they re-adjusted to life away from the horrors of war? Home from War tells the stories of post-war life in times of great struggle and against the growing risk of a new world conflict.
