Zusammenfassung
Britain's role in the First World War has been portrayed mainly through literature, films and plays, in most cases with a marked unhistorical, anti-war spirit. This 2002 book follows the controversy from 1918 to the present, and concludes that historians are finally permitting the war to be placed in proper perspective.
