Description
David Stevenson's 1914-1918: A Comprehensive History of the First World War is a major analysis of the conflict that reshaped the world. The war that began in the summer of 1914 had far-reaching global consequences, destroying four empires and claiming millions of lives. Even the victorious countries were left scarred for generations, and the conflict's impact still resonates today.

Drawing on the latest research, Stevenson provides a wide-ranging international history that offers compelling answers to key questions about the war's unfolding. A thorough and erudite study, this book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of the First World War.
