Great War. 1914-1918

Now this war is called the First World War. And this is really the first such war, which forever divided the history of mankind into “before” and “after”. The First World War was the first modern war: for the first time, the death account went to millions, for the first time weapons of mass defeat were used, for the first time the war was waged on land, and at sea, and in the air. The largest military historian John Kigan, painstakingly and accurately restoring the chronology of events and impartially dismantled all the facts and evidence, managed to deeply understand the causes of the conflict and summarize its final results. Kigan’s book, brilliantly written, developed in detail, has become a new word in the history of the First World War
