Siblings are our longest lasting relationships. Narratives of the
Great War abound with the war stories of brothers and sisters.
Their emotional experiences span the novelty of departing for war
or taking up war work, the turmoil of facing combat, the effort to
provide ongoing support for family members, the ever-present
anxiety for soldier-brothers, the depth of sibling grief and the
multifarious ways surviving siblings sought to preserve the memory
of their fallen brothers. This social and cultural history places
siblinghood at the heart of our understanding of the war generation
and how they balanced conflicting obligations to the nation, the
military and their families. Drawing on a range of material,
Brothers in the Great War, reveals how sibling bonds sustained
fighting men and presents a novel insight into twentieth-century
familial life. -- .
