Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Explores the role of local elites in shaping patriotism and wartime mobilization in rural and urban Britain.This is an original interpretation of domestic patriotism and limitations of wartime mobilization in rural and urban communities of the British Home Front at a local level from 1914-1918. It is a critical examination of the wartime role of the local elite as 'superintendents of patriotism'. The reader is immediately drawn into the riveting human and social interest with an account of 'khaki fever' leading to 'moral panic' resulting from the attraction of military uniforms and a perceived need for elite guidance and control while expanding mobilisation. Author is a local writer and commentator, with rare local sources with national relevance, he defines the local elite groups as 'provincial patriots', a hugely patriotic class who compared their patriotism with that of the local populace. They were the elite 'police-men and women' of patriotism and who tried to enforce their concept of patriotism and code of ideal conduct in wartime on the local population and to further mobilisation. They served on tribunals set to deal with appeals against enlistment following conscription, and elite pressure could be decisive. These attempts to mobilise for military service met with limited success and 'humanitarian' mobilisation in the of philanthropy was widespread. The essential national role for agriculture and fishing - very much part of Devon and most of the country - continued as essential and the military contribution continued. The book uses Devon as a case study but reaches out to the whole United Kingdom in total war and with similar examples in Europe, notably France and Germany. It shows the tensions between elites - landed gentry and urban professionals - and the local populations, rural (mostly) and urban. The 'provincial patriots', if not their families, were above military service age. The study analyses orthodox views about mobilization, dissent, and domestic patriotism on the Home Front in the First World War and roles of local elites. There was, no doubt, flocking to the colours, but also resistance and alternative forms of patriotic contribution.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A study of the British Home Front of the First World War, on a local level, from the perspective of the Lord Lieutenant of Devonshire: the fourth Earl Fortescue.This book is a study of the British Home Front of the First World War, on a local level, from the perspective of the Lord Lieutenant of Devonshire: the fourth Earl Fortescue. As a Lord Lieutenant during the Great War, Hugh Fortescue was a pre-eminent figure in Devon's local elite, to which his involvement with the war effort in the county was significant. This volume considers the wartime experiences of a county's Lord Lieutenant through a presentation ofrecords from Fortescue's private papers. It contains the original typescript that Earl Fortescue wrote in 1924 as a retrospective account of his experiences during the conflict and the diaries that he kept from 1914 to 1918. In particular, the wartime diaries of the fourth Earl Fortescue are a rich, insightful and multifaceted account of Earl Fortescue and the Fortescue family during the war years. Alongside the original typescript and his wartime diaries,this book also presents a selection of documents related to the Great War from the Fortescue family at Castle Hill archive. By presenting these documents from Lord Fortescue, this book raises awareness of his involvement with thewar effort in the county and the momentous challenges that he faced as the Lord Lieutenant of Devon during the First World War.

Lauriston Leonard Batten studied at Trinity College, Cambridge (see his entry in Alum. Cantab.). He was admitted at the Inner Temple in 1882 and called to the bar four years later. KC, 1905. Bencher, 1914. The present collection is from the papers of his colleague on the Oxford Circuit, Sir Richard Harington (1861-1931), 12th baronet, who was educated at Eton and Christ Church, Oxford. Called to the Bar in 1886, he practised on the Oxford Circuit before taking up an appointment as a Puisne Judge in the High Court of Justice at Fort William in Bengal in 1899. He returned to England in 1913, and was appointed High Sheriff of Herefordshire in 1918, having succeeded to his father's title in 1911. From the Harington family papers. 27 caricatures and sketched portraits of barristers, judges and others, in robes, including a few court scenes. In ink and pencil, each on a separate piece of paper. In fair condition, with light signs of age and wear. A miscellaneous collections of papers, ranging from a 33 x 11 cm blue-grey strip embossed with the letterhead crest of the Royal Courts of Justice, to the reverse of a 10 x 14 cm cutting from the printed calendar of charges ('Conspiring to cheat and defraud the Great Western Railway Company, by obtaining and making improper use of a ticket, at Didcot, on the 19th December, 1887.'). One caricature is on the reverse of an 20 x 25 cm piece cut from the cover of an 1894 manuscript writ. Several of the sketches are laid down on leaves torn from an commonplace book, one of these leaves having on the reverse a poem ('A certain Mr. Day married a Miss Week') and humorous anecdote relating to W. R. Smith. Five items signed by Batten with his 'LB' monogram, and seven items dated. Three are addressed to Harington (one 'To - | Richard Harington Esq: | per. G[reat]. W[estern]. R[ailway].'), and the material was clearly in order to amuse Harington, Batten being regarded as one of the 'famous wits' of the Oxford Circuit. There are occasional annotations by Harington, as for example 'A sketch taken by L Batten Oxford autumn circuit 1887' and 'Shrewsbury Assizes - 1887'. Another caption reads: 'The Under sheriff | a sketch taken in court at Gloucester during the trial of Wadley. July 14th. 1887. by L: Batten.' The different drawings vary in style, and those with thicker and looser lines being the most successful. Subjects and captions include 'N. T. Reid QC afterwards Lord Loveburn (Ld. Ch)', 'C. J. Darling Q.C.', 'Stanley Weyman' ('Queen v Pugh Cox & Wood'), 'C. A. V.' (a magistrate at the bench, with two court officials), 'Mirehouse' ('Miry'), 'Hawkins', 'A. G. James. | afterwards County Ct. Judge', 'Dr. Gumbleton' ('Gumby'), 'Can't stand George Griffiths', 'reserved witness' (judge at bench, in spectacles), 'Lieut Cole (Master of the Rolls) and his [?] figure', 'The Prosecution which did the criminal act | Reading Feb. 6th 1888', 'The Equity Junior which came special to Shrewsbury Assizes 1887', 'C. V. Called within the Bar very shortly'. Two are caricatures of a striking woman, the plaintive in 'Birmingham Assizes - Aug. 4th. 1887. | Timmins v Crofts for breach of promise'. Five feature Harington: one highly finished effort shows him in court, with a wooden leg, declaiming from 'Lay of the Citi[zen] Diligent' by 'R. H.'; two show him in his robes, grasping a money bag on which is written 'R: H: £700', in one he is running, in the other, captioned 'Borrows £700 and barely escapes with his life', he is being tackled by three other barristers, one with a hockey stick; in another, captioned 'The Red Flag of Anarchy in Gloucester | Flower of D. C. C. Chipp', he flourishes a banner reading 'Briefs or Blood'; in another he stands with hands in pockets, with syringe ('water-pipe') before him; in the last, captioned 'In the Company's Interest - Returned Empty', shows him seated in court with another barrister ('Leslie').…
