- Double-weighted statement
- This is a research monograph and a “longer-form output”. It includes 298 pages and approx. 120K words. The book is the result of an eight-year period of sustained research and necessitated the collection and analysis of a large body of primary sources, including personal papers and diaries, state documents, oral histories and musical collections which were difficult to access across many disparate public archives and private collections in the UK. The book uncovers the seminal importance of musical cultures among the British Arm Forces during WW1 and its contribution to troops’ moral, propaganda, religion and fundraising.
