Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a detailed account of the morale-boosting role of popular music during World War I. The author provides a concise yet thorough analysis of the various ways through which music influenced the war effort. While previous scholarship has primarily focused on the ways in which propaganda shaped morale during the war, the author argues that leisure activities such as music were equally influential in bolstering the spirits of the troops and civilians alike. The book demonstrates through a close examination of official documents, song lyrics, newspaper articles, and personal diaries how popular music gave voice to the hopes and fears of those impacted by the war. This well-researched work establishes a fresh perspective on the dynamics of morale during World War I and enriches our understanding of the relationship between culture and armed conflict.
