- This 424 page monograph draws on more than ten years of intensive historical archival research. It gathers together and analyses an extensive scale and range of archival evidence on the role of logistics in I World War, benefitting from research in 11 different archives in three countries. Further, the book places this evidence in a new interpretive context, engaging with and substantially recasting existing debates in literatures on: the conduct of World War I, the nature of industrial warfare, the nature of the British state and the role of non-military experts in the prosecution of conflict.
