Samenvatting

The First World War in vivid, personal detail, in the voices of those who lived it

The First World War in vivid, personal detail, in the voices of those who lived it

One hundred years on, the First World War haunts us still. No other conflict has revealed so dramatically the senselessness of war, and none has shaped the modern world to the same extent, from its impact on the Russian Revolution and the rise of Hitler to the final break-up of the British Empire and the supremacy of America.

These compelling eyewitness accounts – more than 180 of them – cover every facet of the War to End All Wars, from the Flanders trenches to the staffrooms of the Imperial German Army, from T. E. Lawrence (‘Lawrence of Arabia’) in the desert to German fighter ace the Red Baron in the air, and from English Land Girls to German U-boat crews in the North Atlantic.

There are contributions from nearly every combatant nation, including the UK, USA, France, Germany, Canada, Italy, Australia, Russia, Serbia and India, and the book includes a detailed timeline and maps.
