"The lamps are going out all over Europe, we shall not see them lit
again in our time."
-Sir Edward Grey, British Foreign Secretary
The First World War, also known as the Great War, involved over
thirty nations and resulted in the deaths of millions of young men.
This stunning new book brings history to life as we see the war
through the eyes of the young conscripted servicemen on all sides
of the conflict. Introducing the advent of tanks, airplanes, air
raids, submarines and gas attacks, we take a close look at the
first modern war of the 20th Century. From the assassination of
Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo to the Treaty of Versailles we
see for ourselves what life was like in the trenches, on the home
front, at sea and in the air. This is more than just a history
book; it is a fully illustrated journey into another age.
We follow the fortunes of a group of young conscripts and
volunteers to discover what life was really like in the trenches
and how they coped with returning home after the horrors of the
front line.
