À propos de cet audio
In this episode of the Western Front Association’s Mentioned in Dispatches, Dr Richard Batten, Honorary Research Fellow in History at the University of Exeter, discusses his new book For King and Country: The Role of Patriotism in Mobilisation in the First World War, published by Pen & Sword in 2025. Focusing on Devon but addressing wider national and European themes, the book explores how local elites encouraged men to enlist, enforced wartime discipline and sought to define patriotism, while also showing how ordinary people – especially women and working-class communities – responded to or challenged these ideals.
