NO LABOUR, NO BATTLE by John Starling and Ivor Lee. No Labour, No Battle is a record of the part played by the men of the Labour Corps in the First World War and in its immediate aftermath. From 1917 British soldiers who were unfit or too old for front line service were to serve unarmed and within the range of German guns for weeks or even months at a time. The vital, yet largely unreported role played by these men was crucial to achieving victory in 1918. Labour units were seen as a poor relative of the Army, made up of the old, unfit and foreigners. The majority of the men were non-combatant. At the time, and since, they have not been given the recognition they deserved. Illustrated hardback, 384 pp –PUBLISHED PRICE £30 – OUR PRICE £23.99
