Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The experiences of the pioneers of entertainment for troopsTroupes of entertainers visiting armed forces in areas of conflict are now a familiar concept, and the performers have become highly respected for their patriotism, courage and commitment to 'the boys over there'. Most people now accept this as a normal and invaluable demonstration of support for the military, but this was not always so. Senior officers understood the value of 'good morale', but initially there was reluctance to acknowledge the important role that entertainment could play. The First World War was a huge catalyst for military support organisations; it brought about the active involvement of women as volunteers doing vital work in canteens, hospitals and other areas, against much opposition from the military establishment. When entertainment for the troops was first proposed it met the same obstinate rejection, but those who believed in the benefits it could offer were undaunted and pressed on in their belief 'that the show must go on'. This book contains two accounts by female entertainers who took their principles to the front line and brought moments of light relief to thousands of men in times of darkness and horror. Lena Ashwell is credited as being the founder of the military entertainment initiative, and Ada Ward, another dauntless lady followed in her footsteps.Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.…
