Description

This scholarly work challenges conventional narratives about charity during World War I, revealing that charitable donations reached unprecedented peaks rather than declining from the Victorian era. The book examines how the scope and nature of charitable work transformed fundamentally, drawing unprecedented numbers of working-class activists and women into voluntary service. It explores significant regional variations between suburban southern England, the industrial north, and Scotland, whilst addressing misconceptions about how civilian charitable efforts were perceived by soldiers at the front. Published by Routledge as part of their Studies in Modern British History series, this volume offers fresh insights into the social mobilisation and grassroots activism that characterised the home front experience during the First World War.

Key Features

Challenges traditional scholarship presenting WWI charity as a decline from Victorian philanthropic peaks.

Documents how working-class activists and women became significantly more involved in charitable work during wartime.

Examines regional differences in voluntary action between suburban south and industrial north of England and Scotland.

Addresses misconceptions about relationships between civilian charitable efforts and soldiers' experiences at the front.

Part of Routledge's established Studies in Modern British History academic series for serious historical study.
