Abstract

This thesis examines the content of The Bombshell during the period 1917 and 1919 in order to explore how the culture of the workforce, predominantly women workers, was represented during a period of both war and peace. This will be performed by examining themes, which appear in The Bombshell, of gender and sport, humour and gossip, and literature and poetry. These themes will be scrutinised in order to provide a deeper historical context of the workforce of Thos. Firth & Sons.
