Abstract

This volume explores how understandings of masculinity were constructed by British First World war servicemen through examination of their personal narratives, including letters home from the front and wartime diaries. Through analysis of these personal narratives, the author presents a nuanced investigation of masculine identity in Britain during and after the First World War.
