| 520 | _aMilitary education was the lifeblood of the armies, navies, and air forces of the British Empire and an essential ingredient for success in both war and peace. Military Education and the British Empire is the first major scholarly work to address the role of military education in maintaining the empire throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Bringing together the world's top scholars on the subject, this book places distinct national narratives - Canadian, Australian, South African, British, and Indian - within a comparative context. Ultimately, this book allows readers to consider the connections between education and empire from a transnational perspective. | ||
