‘Imagine Christ dressed in khaki, thrusting his bayonet into another man. This was what some conscientious objectors to the war of 1914-18 urged their co-patriots to do. In telling the intriguing stories of these men, Lois Bibbings brilliantly exposes the contradictions of manliness in wartime.’ Professor Joanna Bourke, Birkbeck College

- .,

*Telling tales about men* explores some of the ways in which conscientious objectors to compulsory military service were viewed and treated in England during the First World War.

It is also aimed at those with a general interest in the Great War and the military as well as in peace movements and pacifism.
