Anotace knihy

This fascinating book brings together three years' research together witha collection of photographs and memories from local people. It provides a comprehensive and very readable social history of the Portsmouth area during the tumultuous years of 1914 - 18. The prelude to war in Britain's premier naval port is described, including the area's important role in the arms race, public reaction to the outbreak of war and the subsequent changes in attitudes to the conflict. The introduction of women into traditionally male workplaces like the dockyard, the efforts to encourage men to enlist and the fear and confusion as Portsmouth became the target for spies and Zeppelin attack are outlined in this well-researched and often moving account.
