The collections at the Imperial War Museum cover Britain's engagements in armed conflict during the 20th and 21st centuries in sympathetic and fascinating detail. The aim is to "record the toil and sacrifice of every individual affected by war," utilizing film, oral history, art, large objects, and personal letters and diaries. Perhaps the best way to explore this site, is by using the Collections Search feature. Here, readers can browse through the over 600,000 items housed in the museum's collections. Items range from weapons and ammunition to propaganda posters to soldiers' shoes and are accompanied by detailed descriptions and full catalog records. This is a wonderful site for exploring the largely forgotten experiences of soldiers across the British Empire during World War One and World War Two.
