Expand description
Now Keegan has gathered together 475 photographs, maps, and other illustrations that allow us to see what his text so brilliantly describes: the startling ferocity of the conflict; the hellish nature of the trenches; the legendary battles of Flanders, the Somme, Verdun, Gallipoli, and their aftermaths; the tanks, submarines, and airplanes new to the battlefield; the faces of the statesmen who made the war and the soldiers who fought it. Together, text and illustrations give us the most comprehensive and illuminating history we have of the First World War, the progenitor of all 20th-century warfare.
