As Britain's great power status came to be increasingly challenged
in the decades before the First World War, one by-product of the
resultant uncertainty was the weakening of the Victorian,
middle-class consensus of what constituted ideal manhood. Britain's
empire was not only the source of wealth and power, but it
simultaneously provided alternative models of masculinity and
nationhood. Consequently, the empire and the commonwealth played an
important role in defining imperial gender relations in both
Britain and in the colonies and dominions. May The Best Man Win
investigates the continual re-assessment and reassertion of various
masculine ideals associated with sport in the British empire
between 1880 and 1935.
