Notes
The story of propaganda and patriotism in First World War Britain perhaps too often focuses on the cliches of Kitchener, "over by Christmas", and the patriotic volunteers who flocked to the colours. The activities of the National War Aims Committee in 1917/1918 suggest that propaganda and patriotism remained vigorous in Britain in the later years of the war. The NWAC was a semi-official Parliamentary Organisation, which contributed greatly to the upkeep of the original spirit.
