Abstract:
The shift to total war, when mobilisation for the war effort became the overwhelming policy objective, imposed unprecedented levels of deprivation on the civilian population. Rather surprisingly, Britain, in general, and Hinckley in particular, did not suffer the social unrest which undermined the commitment to the war efforts in other countries. This article investigates why Hinckley, a market town in Leicestershire, continued to prosper during the war, and also the crucially important role played by the town’s leaders in enabling its inhabitants to avoid the deprivation and social unrest which became increasingly evident during the latter stages of the First World War.
