Published in 2023, this insightful book spans 216 pages and examines the nuanced roles public school boys played during the Great War. Challenging the traditional view of these young men as mere 'innocents' driven by romantic ideals, Halstead draws from his previous work, \"A School in Arms: Uppingham and the Great War,\" to argue that the involvement of public schools in the conflict is far more intricate than commonly perceived. He explores how a curriculum steeped in classics and a culture of competitive games shaped their perceptions and actions during wartime. With a compelling narrative, Halstead invites readers to reconsider the legacies of these educational institutions and their impact on those who fought. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in world history, education, and the profound effects of war on youth.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Timothy Halstead","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51508600504662,"sku":"9781913336219","price":29.45,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0886\/3206\/6390\/files\/9781913336219.jpg?v=1759861764","url":"https:\/\/www.englishbook.fi\/products\/more-than-victims-of-horace-9781913336219","provider":"Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
