A quick note to say that a revised version of the Lettow-Vorbeck piece from a couple of days ago is now available to read at Oxford’s WWI Centenary Blog.
Welcome to Wellington House
This is the academic blog of Nick Milne, part-time professor and doctoral candidate in the English Department at the University of Ottawa.
My research is focused upon the history and literature of the Great War (1914-1918) and the cultural response to same; my current project focuses more specifically upon the authors employed by C.F.G. Masterman at the War Propaganda Bureau at Wellington House from September of 1914 onward. Nevertheless, there's much else going on in the war and its surrounding world that interests me.
This blog will serve as a clearing-house for publication and event announcements, links of interest, intriguing tidbits from my ongoing research, and a fair number of other things related to what Edmund Blunden called the war that won, and that would go on winning. Comments and notifications of useful material elsewhere are greatly encouraged.
