Kritik
"The contributors should be commended for putting a notable dent in the historiography. ... this collection provides a wealth of insight into the experiences of young people in World War I. Melanie Tebbutt's analysis of how children experienced the darkened space of the cinemas is especially innovative." (Ashley Henrickson, The Journal of the History of Childhood and Youth, Vol. 15 (3), 2022)mehr
