It’s the countdown to the 100th anniversary of the Armistice of 11 November 1918, where the world finally saw the end of its very first World War. This seven-part podcast series unravels the woes and the politics in what is often described as the “war to end all wars”, leading to an Allied Powers victory and the formation of new nations across Europe and the Middle East. We walk through the final weeks of the war with military historian Glyn Harper [Link 1] and RadioLIVE host Graeme Hill. “Jesus, make it stop: The death throes of WWI” [Link 2] originally aired on RadioLIVE’s Weekend Variety Wireless show [LINK 3}, with a new episode coming out every Sunday from 9:30pm. Harper is a professor of War Studies [Link 4] at Massey University in Palmerston North. He is also Massey’s team leader for the Centenary History of New Zealand and the First World War project (writing one of the first volumes). A former teacher, he joined the Australian Army in 1988 and after eight years transferred to the NZ Army, where he rose to the rank of lieutenant colonel. Harper was the army's official historian for the deployment to East Timor and is the author of fourteen books for adults, including In the Face of the Enemy: The complete history of the Victoria Cross and New Zealand; Dark Journey and Images of War: World War One: A Photographic Record of New Zealanders at War 1914-1918. Harper also enjoys writing books for children. Some of his children’s books include The Donkey Man, My Grandfather’s War, with his latest (Gladys goes to War) released in March 2016.
