By placing time as the central framework of analysis, this collection of essays - based on research by up-and-coming scholars - pushes our understanding of the war and the experiences of those who lived through it in new directions. As we move beyond the centenary of the First World War, this volume is testimony to the fact that its historiography has never been in a more exciting place. - Professor Catriona Pennell, University of Exeter The First World War was one of the most cataclysmic events of the 20th century.
