Throughout the nineteenth century, Britain was constantly at war in its colonies, defending against anti-colonial resistance or trying to expand its influence. The veterans of these wars did not disappear once they were over, and many of them went on to later experience World War I. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy using personal sources such as letters, diaries, and photograph albums, this book works to show how colonial violence and British military history depend upon one another, and argues that colonial war fundamentally shaped the British experience of empire. This was true for all kinds of British veterans, from British Army soldiers and officers to nurses and military families, whose experiences demonstrate the central place of colonial violence to British life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Taylor Soja\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 152619046X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526190468\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Taylor Soja","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48114122621183,"sku":"9781526190468","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7a5b88c7-b63d-482e-8051-8c24ec6febb6.jpg?v=1769619256","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/little-wars-of-empire-taylor-soja-9781526190468","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
