"Not only is this book a rich and accessible resource for the history of British veterans in the interwar years, the book's themes will resonate today as we continue to send young men and women to war and deal with personal traumas and stress of its aftermath. Powell provides a wider and broader context from the pre-war world of Edwardian England to the worldwide impact of the twentieth century's first global conflict within which to examine the reality of returning veterans. From individuals' stories to government policies (or lack thereof), Soldiering On bears powerful witness to the human cost of war.

"It would be impossible to do other than recommend this valuable study off long-term human consequences of the Great War in the United Kingdom for its eye-opening content and skilled authorship.
