Tommies, Food, and Drink
This article uses a diary kept by a First World War soldier, Vince Schürhoff, to explore the British Army’s food culture. It examines his journey through seven food contexts, the evolution of his cooking and consumption, and interaction with French food culture. This microhistory of everyday life demonstrates the centrality of food in the men’s lives both emotionally and socially as well as physiologically. Additionally, it provides valuable insi…
The War in Miniature
Sir Edwin Lutyens created the national shrine to the war’s losses and, a few years later, a dolls’ house gifted by a ‘grateful nation’ to Queen Mary; the legacies that coalesced in the Cenotaph are also present in the miniature project. Connections with the war are evident in the tiny contents contributed by veterans and in the ambitions that led to its creation as a paradigm of ‘Englishness’. It was a post-war reassertion of domestic and private…

This article considers the s…
A Taste of Army Life
Food and military identity were inextricably linked in the British Army: rations were a thrice daily indicator of the men's separation from their civilian selves. The soldiers were what they ate, but they were also where and how they ate; the grubby rapacity of the barrack dining hall, the absence of civilizing cutlery and the unfamiliar food delineated their new role as clearly as any uniform. Institutional feeding facilitated the erasure of sel…
