From mobilization to the Armistice in 1918, this volume recounts the key events of World War I, including the battles of the Marne, Ypres, Flanders, Verdun, Somme and Passchendaele. It draws on a variety of contemporary material, including journals, letters, newspaper reports and the writings of key literary figures of the time, such as Wilfred Owen, Erich Maria Remarque, Andre Maurois and Siegfried Sassoon. The history is illustrated with a combination of photographs and pictures from before the war, during it, and showing the battlefields as they are today. John Foley's serene photographs of the present day landscape contrast with the wartime pictures, to create this wartime record.
