Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a testament to the war effort and the sacrifices of the people involved, from civilians to government officials, following the outbreak of World War I. The author, who served in a war capacity, details a series of committees established by the British government to focus on matters such as trade, reconstruction, and employment, in addition to production of resources to support the war effort. Given the pressures of war, these committees sought to address home-front concerns that would help people survive and thrive despite the massive undertaking of the war mobilization. Readers will find in-depth discussions on major concerns of the time, including topics such as transitioning soldiers back into civilian life and maintaining production of goods and services, giving special attention to vital issues of fuel, power, mining, and metallurgy. With a focus on government action in the face of national crisis, this book not only provides historical context but raises important questions about the role of government in international conflict.
