Description
This comparative analysis provides an insight into the effect of war on servicemen. To date there has been no systematic investigation into the ways in which military service in both World Wars affected those who participated and, in particular, whether it was a radicalizing or depoliticizing experience. The book puts these experiences into an historical context, providing material on hitherto restricted records, ministerial papers, records of the War Office, the Admiralty and Air Ministry, along with published and unpublished memoirs, diaries and letters of the participants.
