Historians of labour in this period have concentrated on pacifism. This study focuses instead on the majorities in both French and British labour movements which supported the war to the end.

Labour at War by John N Horne

This book is a comparative study of national labour movements in France and Britain during the First World War. Horne focuses on the majorities in both the French and the British labour movements which continued to support the war to its end. He examines the terms of their support and the broader working-class experience which this reflected, showing how a critical program of socialist reforms was gradually developed as the price of labour collaboration.
`a richly detailed and satisfying work - which is not a page too long.. Dr Horne skilfully manages both to control a vast mass of material and to demonstrate how different circumstances produced a similar response. It is an impressive performance.' John Gooch, The Higher
