Khaki as a cultural history of the First World War
Jane Tynan examines British combatants’ clothing on the Western Front as more than military equipment: khaki becomes a lens on how the First World War was experienced and understood. The book connects uniform to gender, social class, and ethnicity, while also tracing its effects beyond the battlefield through the tailoring trade. It further considers khaki’s place in pacifist resistance, expanding the subject from dress history into the politics and culture surrounding wartime appearance. With its focus on a single material symbol across military and civilian contexts, the study situates uniform within the wider social history of the war.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Readers interested in First World War cultural and social history
- Students of fashion, dress, and uniform history
- Those exploring the relationship between clothing, class, gender, and politics
