The spread of education in Britain in the decades leading up to Word War I meant that both the British soldiers and the British public, at all levels of society, were literate. As a result, British authors, both professional and amateur, were prolific during and after the war and found a market for their works. Literature was produced throughout the war but it was in the late 1920s and early 1930s that Britain had a boom in publication of war literature. The next boom period was in the 1960s, when there was renewed interest in the First World War after two decades focussed on the Second.
