While a plethora of studies have discussed why so many men decided
to volunteer for the army during the Great War, the experiences of
those who were called up under conscription have received
relatively little scrutiny. Even when the implementation of the
respective Military Service Acts has been investigated, scholars
have usually focused on only the distinct minority of those
eligible who expressed conscientious objections. It is rare to see
equal significance placed on the fact that substantial numbers of
men appealed, or were appealed for, on the grounds that their
domestic, business, or occupational circumstances meant they should
not be expected to serve. David Littlewood analyses the processes
undergone by these men, and the workings of the bodies charged with
assessing their cases, through a sustained transnational comparison
of the British and New Zealand contexts.
