Description: | Select Guide Rating A fact-packed information book that relates the unfolding events and the human stories of WWI in a way that brings history vividly to life. The First World War was the world''s first ''total war''. Although large-scale wars like the Napoleonic wars had ranged across many territories, the scale of WWI was unprecedented. It was also the first war between modern industrialised nations, and mechanised warfare saw new and terrifying weapons deployed for the first time, including airplanes, tanks, zeppelins, giant warships and poison gas. |
