    Bibliographical note

    Impact: The Chapter is over 9,000 words long and will be accompanied by six plates of illustration. When published, early in December 2016, it will constitute one of the most detailed and up-to-date discussions of non-white individuals and their presentation within official British art of the First World War. It will also the be the most that has been published on the contribution to this subject made by leading British artists of the First World War such as: Eric Kennington, William Rothenstein, James McBey, T.C. Dugdale and Stuart Reid. The chapter and the volume within which it appears is likely to appeal to historians, art historians, those focusing on questions of ethnicity and gender with regard to the Great War.
