Want to learn more about history, but don’t think you have the time? Think again.

World War I was ‘the Great War’. Nothing can fully describe the horror of the conflict, which destroyed the lives, bodies and spirits of countless young men. From 1914 until the end of 1918, battles raged in bloody, mud-filled trenches in Western Europe and in far-flung battlefields in the East. By the end of the war, over 10 million had died, with another 20 million wounded, and large parts of Europe were completely devastated. This book is the story of ‘the war to end all wars’.
