Descrizione
In a concise yet compelling exploration, readers are taken through the complex landscape of the First World War, a conflict that irrevocably changed the course of history. Michael Eliot Howard distills the monumental events, strategies, and socio-political repercussions into an accessible format designed for both newcomers and those familiar with military history. Each chapter unfurls the causes of the war, the key battles, and the profound impact on the global stage, all while shedding light on the experiences of countless individuals caught in the turmoil.
Howard’s narrative engages with the human stories behind the statistics, presenting not only the military strategies and national politics but also the profound suffering and resilience of those who lived through the era. By examining both the triumphs and tragedies, the work offers readers a nuanced understanding of the war's legacy, encouraging reflection on its lasting influence in shaping contemporary society.
