Food for War : Agriculture and Rearmament in Britain before the Second World War
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This groundbreaking study charts Britain's food and agricultural preparations in the 1930s. It shows that in this sector, in contrast to other areas of the economy, government plans were already well-developed by 1939 and examines how the measures of the 1930s not only set the stage for World
War II but also contributed to a more robust British agiculture in the decades that followed.
