these experiences, and to construct a sense of self that could incorporate them. This is an excellent book, which demonstrates the complexities of life in early Cold War Britain and works to show how the military and civilian worlds were linked, not just in times of total war, but also during a more traditional war, which directly affected few, but for which consent still had to be won. If it reaches the audience that it deserves it has the potential to change understandings of a war which is still best remembered, ironically, for being forgotten.

与英国接壤：法律、种族和帝国

这些经验，并构建一种可以融入它们的自我意识。这是一本出色的书，它展示了冷战初期英国生活的复杂性，并致力于展示军事和平民世界是如何联系在一起的，不仅在全面战争时期，而且在更传统的战争期间，它直接影响了少数人，但仍需获得同意。如果它以它应得的方式传达给观众，它就有可能改变人们对战争的理解，而具有讽刺意味的是，这场战争仍然被人们铭记于心。
