Because of the exceptionally high proportion of imports in
Britain's food supply and the determined efforts of the enemy to
sever the supply lines, efficient management of food resources was
an essential element in the British national war effort. This
volume was the first comprehensive study of this vital aspect of
government strategy and fills a gap in the historiography of this
period. This volume provides a balanced picture by drawing together
the diverse elements that went into food policy: economic and
social trends, international trade relations and labour issues. The
author also traces the evolution of food policy during the pre-war
planning period and the early part of the war, and analyses the
roles of the United States and the labour organizations.
