This book examines a diverse set of civic war memorials in North
East England commemorating three clusters of conflicts: the Crimean
War and Indian Rebellion in the 1850s; the 'small wars' of the
1880s; and the Boer War from 1899 to 1902. Encompassing a
protracted timeframe and embracing disparate social, political and
cultural contexts, it analyses how and why war memorials and
commemorative practices changed during this key period of social
transition and imperial expansion. In assessing the motivations of
the memorial organisers and the narratives they sought to convey,
the author argues that developments in war commemoration were
primarily influenced by - and reflected - broader socio-economic
and political transformations occurring in nineteenth-century and
early-twentieth century Britain.
