Publisher's Synopsis

The shocks to British society from the Boer War - and the discovery of the unfitness of soldiers was a seminal moment. It was seen to represent all that was wrong, and corrupt, in British society. War abroad and poverty at home was a dangerous equation. Power at the perimeter of the Empire meant decay at its centre. It was these key problems which the expert contemporary contributors assessed.
