Description

Explore the evolution of the British Army during one of the most significant periods of change in military history. This Routledge publication examines how the British Army responded to the massive shift in warfare on the Western Front between 1914 and 1918. The book investigates how the pre-war focus on global garrison duties, occupation, and imperial policing shaped the mindset of military leadership. It provides a deep look into why the Army faced challenges during the early years of the conflict, including a lack of preparation for a large-scale continental war. Readers will learn about the impact of unplanned increases in manpower and material, as well as the internal factors that influenced performance. The text covers professional issues such as staff work, careerism, and the internal dynamics of the British Army. This is an essential resource for students and historians interested in military history and policy during World War I.
