一战中的哈德斯菲尔德

1914年8月宣战时，战争不仅改变了参战士兵的生活，而且还改变了他们的家庭、社区以及最终整个社会的生活。妇女走出家门，从事工业工作，开电车，管理街道，护理伤员。地方政府和国家政府对社会生活的各个方面实施了广泛的控制——谁可以继续工作，谁必须战斗，什么可以作为作物种植，什么衣服合适，以及如何养活一个家庭。
这项研究着眼于这些变化如何影响哈德斯菲尔德及其居民，展示就业如何变化，该镇如何为战争提供资金，以及地方法庭如何处理那些不想打仗的人。从最高阶层到最低阶层的当地家庭都可以在这里找到他们的故事。

Government, local and national, imposed extensive controls on all aspects of social life – who could remain in work, who had to fight, what could be grown as crops, what clothes were appropriate and how to feed a family.
This study looks at how these changes affected Huddersfield and its inhabitants, showing how employment changed, how the town contributed to financing the war and how the local tribunals dealt with those who did not want to fight. Local families, from the highest to the lowest walks of life, find their stories illustrated here.
