Description

The lamps are going out all over Europe, we shall not see them lit again in our time. This book brings history to life as it tells the story of the First World War through the eyes of young conscripted servicemen on all sides of the conflict. From the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand to the Treaty of Versailles, it explores the first modern war of the 20th Century, introducing key innovations like tanks, airplanes, air raids, submarines, and gas attacks. This fully illustrated book takes a close look at life in the trenches, on the home front, at sea, and in the air, offering a unique perspective on one of the most significant events of the 20th Century. It follows the fortunes of a group of young conscripts and volunteers, revealing what life was really like in the trenches and how they coped with returning home after the horrors of the front line.
