Casting aside conventional narratives of The Great War, Jeremy Black
returns to a vast range of original sources and investigates not only
the key events of the war, but its consequences in restructuring the old
order. Black also considers the struggle not only in its historical
context, but also how it has been remembered and memorialised,
especially as the generation who experienced it firsthand are passing
away.
Now in paperback, this book has been updated with a foreword and
afterword to consider recent developments.
