Wlodzimierz Borodziej and Maciej Gorny set out to salvage the
historical memory of the experience of war in the lands between
Riga and Skopje, beginning with the two Balkan conflicts of
1912-1913 and ending with the death of Emperor Franz Joseph in
1916. The First World War in the East and South-East of Europe was
fought by people from a multitude of different nationalities, most
of them dressed in the uniforms of three imperial armies: Russian,
German, and Austro-Hungarian. In this first volume of Forgotten
Wars, the authors chart the origins and outbreak of the First World
War, the early battles, and the war's impact on ordinary soldiers
and civilians through to the end of the Romanian campaign in
December 1916, by which point the Central Powers controlled all of
the Balkans except for the Peloponnese. Combining military and
social history, the authors make extensive use of eyewitness
accounts to describe the traumatic experience that established a
region stretching between the Baltic, Adriatic, and Black Seas.
