A book of untold stories from the Island is to be published to mark the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War.
Manx National Heritage is to publish This Terrible Ordeal, written by social history curator, Matthew Richardson.
It will be made available this autumn ahead of an accompanying major exhibition at the Manx Museum in Douglas from next February.
As well as documenting the experience of Manx soldiers on the Western Front, the research will also reveal stories from the Manx home front.
