    Understanding World War I: A Concise History

    Joseph V Micallef, "Understanding World War I: A Concise History"
    English | 2014 | pages: 300 | ISBN: 1587104288 | EPUB | 30,2 mb

    It started with a botched murder. By the time it ended, over 16 million people had lost their lives. Seventy million men
    took up arms; nine million of them never returned home. More than four times that number had been wounded. It was supposed to be the war to end all war. Instead, the Great War began a cycle of violence that would shape the 20th century, bring about another world war within a generation, spawn a cold war that would divide the continent of Europe for half a century, and leave echoes that still reverberate in the 21st century.
    In this concise yet comprehensive history of World War I, the conduct of the war is reviewed, from the trenches of the
    Western Front to the frozen fields of the Eastern Front, from the war in the multiple theaters of the Middle East to the war in Africa, China, and the South Pacific. This was the first war fought in three dimensions: on land and sea, beneath the waves, and in the air. It heralded the beginning of air power and the emergence of submarine warfare.
    It was the first war of the industrial age. It mobilized the industrial might and the scientific genius of the developed
    nations and galvanized their populations into total war. It redrew the map of Europe, reshuffled its colonies, and
    brought four great empires to an inglorious end. It heralded the rise of a new world order as millions of American dough boys crossed the Atlantic in defense of European liberty. It underscored the twilight of the old world while the new world flexed its industrial and financial power. By the end of the war, 90% of the world s population had chosen sides making
    the Great War a truly global war.
