- This 110,000-word monograph is the result of seven years of research. Noakes utilises a wide range of primary sources and brings these into conversation with one another. In addition to Mass Observation archives, government policy material, cultural texts and memoirs, Noakes uses a large amount of material from local history archives, including sources from all four of the British nations. This enables an in-depth investigation of the research themes and the development of arguments regarding the complex questions of death, grief and bereavement in Second World War Britain that pays equal attention to policy and experience.
