Publisher Description

What did it mean to be British during the 'People's War'? Professor Rose uses material from newspapers, diaries, novels and letters to examine popular notions of citizenship on the home front. Themes covered include who was included as 'British', what was it like to be Jewish during the war and what was the impact of American GIs? In this fascinating study Rose argues that even during the Second World War national identity was a fragile concept.
