Kitchener's Army
Numbering over five million men, Britain's army in the First World War was the biggest in the country's history. 2,466,719 men enlisted between August 1914 and December 1915, many in response to the appeals of the Field-Marshal Lord Kitchener, by then a natural hero.

Peter Simkins describes how Kitchener's New Armies were raised and reviews the main political, economic and social effects of the recruiting campaign. As well as analyzing their motives for enlisting, he explores how they were fed, housed, equipped and trained before they set off for active service abroad.
