Description

There has been very little previous attention paid to Scottish civilians during the Great War, but, as is revealed here, Scotland had its own unique experience. Of multi-disciplinary interest for academics, and of broad general interest too, this is the only single-volume study of the impact of the Great War on Scotland. Topics include conscientious objection, voluntary recruitment, press coverage, gender and the war, and the Scottish Highlands and the war.
