'Quite simply the best short history of the war in print . . . Strachan has emerged as the master of us all who write of war in English' Dennis Showalter A brilliant and penetrating new history of the First World War by one of the world's foremost experts on the conflict. With an introduction from the author. The popular view of the First World War is dominated by clich�: young British soldiers, many of them budding poets, led to early and ghastly deaths in muddy wastes by incompetent generals for reasons that were seemingly futile. As this magisterial new one volume history of the war illustrates, however, the clich� is only part of the truth. Hew Strachan argues that the war had become a 'world war' long before the involvement of the United States, and that for those liberal countries struggling to defend their freedoms, the war was far from futile. Accessible, compelling and utterly convincing, this is modern history writing at its finest.
