Postal Censorship during the First World War

The scale of the First World War forced the post office to adopt a number of previously unheard of practices including the censorship of mail both at home and on the front lines. Join Graham Mark as he explores the vital role of censorship and reveals some of the special war-time methods employed by the post office to ensure mail got to its destination, mitigate the risk of loss due to hostile action, and allow contact with enemy countries. Q and A included.
