Beschreibung
This compelling account of the First World War tells the story of the Great War in a way that reads like an adventure novel, while remaining a true historical account. After just a few pistol shots, Europe was plunged into hell. The conflict drew in most of the world’s great powers, lasted four years and raged across the continent. Millions died, entire cities disappeared and empires fell, while stories of extraordinary bravery unfolded, aerial battles were fought for the first time, spies crossed Europe and revolutions broke out. But why did it happen? The first book in the History Adventures series takes readers of all ages to negotiating tables, deep into the trenches and directly into the fury of battle. It travels with them across almost the entire world, from the poorest Balkan village to the grandest German palaces, and recounts the First World War through the work of Dominic Sandbrook, co-author of the widely listened-to historical podcast The Rest Is History. The book is intended for readers aged twelve and over.
