Description

This book contributes to the global turn in First World War studies by exploring Australians’ engagements with the conflict across varied boundaries and by situating Australian voices and perspectives within broader, more complex contexts. This diverse and multifaceted collection includes chapters on the composition and contribution of the Australian Imperial Force, the experiences of prisoners of war, nurses and Red Cross workers, the resonances of overseas events for Australians at home, and the cultural legacies of the war through remembrance and representation. The local-global framework provides a fresh lens through which to view Australian connections with the Great War, demonstrating that there is still much to be said about this cataclysmic event in modern history. Review “Global history of the kind championed in this book is no longer a choice; it is a necessity, and, going by the high level of scholarship found in this book, a portent of excellent things to come.” (Jay Winter, Australian Historical Studies, Vol. 49, 2018) “The collection is a worthy addition to the stock of historical writing about Australia and the Great War … . the book shows that Australian war history has much more to offer – and illustrates possible future directions.” (Martin Crotty, Honest History, honesthistory.net.au, September, 2017) From the Back Cover This book contributes to the global turn in First World War studies by exploring Australians’ engagements with the conflict across varied boundaries and by situating Australian voices and perspectives within broader, more complex contexts.
