A Divided Society: Tasmania during World War One is historian Marilyn Lake's study of the island's home front rather than the battlefield — a community split by the bitter conscription referenda of 1916 and 1917, sectarian conflict between Protestants and Catholics stoked by the conscriptionist press, and wartime surveillance through the Loyalty League, as political, religious and community leaders encouraged growing fear and suspicion. Lake went on to become a leading historian of settler colonialism, race and war commemoration, serving as President of the Australian Historical Association and, most recently, an International Fellow of the British Academy.
