Examining the emergence of combative masculinity during the British Empire, this book delves into 'boys' own' literature to uncover the cultural and historical factors that shaped this distinct genre. It analyzes how these narratives influenced perceptions of masculinity and adventure, reflecting societal values of the time. Through a critical lens, the work explores the implications of these literary themes on male identity and behavior in the context of imperialism.
