The Great War

Klappentext
Fought on an unprecedented scale, World War One marked the end of the old world military order and the beginning of mechanized warfare. Expected to be a short, almost surgically neat war, it did not turn out so--nor was it the hoped for "war to end all wars." Although the participants could not have anticipated it at the beginning, World War One was to prove a cataclysmic experience for nations and individuals alike. The Great War surveys the period that began with Bismarck's Prussia and ended with the creation of the League of Nations. It analyzes the development of modern-day military theory and practice, the geopolitical factors that fueled the conflict, and the devastating weaponry used by both sides. And it provides a thorough examination of the significant campaigns of a war that changed the path of history. Theoriginal maps provided in the West Point Atlas for the Great War both highlight the conflict's key military battles, and provide dates and unit numbers, illustrate the importance of terrain, demonstrate the vastness of space in certain campaigns, and show the ebb and flow of battle. These maps can be used either alone or as companions to The Great War.
