The war of 1914-1918 was a military, political and social disaster.
No other war changed the map of Europe so dramatically and more
than 15 million people were killed. The dramatic political and
social changes of the period were mirrored in the uniforms of the
armed forces, and the contrast between pre-war Europe and 1919
could not be more apparent. This unique illustrated book charts the
developments in military uniform in fascinating detail: how the
remaining reds and blues of 1900 soldiers died out in preference to
browns, greys and greens. It also tracks the evolution of hardware
and ammunition. Evocative photographs of the struggle and stunning
illustrations of the uniforms show in detail the changes, reforms
and modifications of all the major powers, Great Britain, France,
Russia, Germany and Austria-Hungary. This unprecedented volume is
an incredible visual study of the uniforms of a pivotal period of
military history, and of its context.
