For Home and Empire is the first book to compare voluntary wartime
mobilization on the Australian, Canadian, and New Zealand home
fronts. Steve Marti shows that collective acts of patriotism
strengthened communal bonds, while reinforcing class, race, and
gender boundaries. Which jurisdiction should provide for a
soldier's wife if she moved from Hobart to northern Tasmania?
Should Welsh women in Vancouver purchase comforts for hometown
soldiers or Welsh ones? Should Maori enlist with a local or an
Indigenous battalion? Such questions highlighted the diverging
interests of local communities, the dominion governments, and the
Empire. Marti applies a settler colonial framework to reveal the
geographical and social divides that separated communities as they
organized for war.
