On writing about war in an era of conflict
Manage episode 360454001 series 3358108
In this episode, George Miller speaks to Jack McDonald, author of 'What is War for?', one of the first titles to be published in Bristol University Press’s new What Is It For? series.
In the first of three short conversations, Jack explains why he chose to focus on war’s twenty-first century character rather than its ancient origins, and talks about writing the book as the events of the Russo-Ukrainian war unfolded in real time.
