"The GReat WAr of 1914 to 1918 was the first war in history to plunge the whole world into armed conflict. Having it's roots in the great alliances formed between the world's most powerful nations and empires in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the war redrew the map of Europe and changed the course of history, at a cost of twenty million people killed and wounded.

This book explains the chain of events leading up to the outbreak of war, the conflict itself, and the aftermath. It also presents a picture of daily life during this critical period in world history. The text is complemented by full-colour illustrations, original documents, paintings, photographs, news clippings and maps." --cover.
