Description

In War Come Home, Deborah Cohen examines the massive legacy of the First World War: the nearly eight million men in Europe who returned home permanently disabled by injury or disease. This academic study from University of California Press provides a comparative analysis of how two major nations, Germany and Britain, managed the care of their wounded veterans between 1914 and 1939. The book explores a striking historical paradox regarding state support and political loyalty. While postwar Germany provided generous benefits to its disabled veterans, these men often grew to despise the state and became susceptible to the Nazi cause. By comparing these different national approaches to veteran care, Cohen offers a deep look into the social and political consequences of the Great War's aftermath.
