520 _aTaken collectively, the chapters in New Perspectives on the First World War: Beyond No Man’s Land not only illuminate pieces of the Great War that remain in the shadow of the broader narratives, but also, and more importantly, foster new perspectives, pose distinct questions, and suggest fresh directions from which future work might emerge. Transnational approaches, the cultural and environmental history of war, and gender’s ubiquitous but heretofore marginalized role in the larger conflict together merit fresh research and careful new interpretation. Mandy Link is Associate Professor of History at the University of Texas at Tyler, USA. She published Remembrance of the Great War in the Irish Free State, 1914-1937: Specters of Empire with Palgrave in 2019. Matthew M. Stith is Associate Professor of History at the University of Texas at Tyler, USA. He is the author or editor of three books including Extreme Civil War: Guerrilla Warfare, Environment, and Race on the Trans-Mississippi Frontier (2016) and, as co-editor, Beyond the Quagmire: New Interpretations of the Vietnam War (2019).
