Product Description: The popular view of The First World War is dominated by cliché: young British soldiers, many of them budding poets, led to early and ghastly deaths in muddy wastes by incompetent generals for reasons that were seemingly futile. As this magisterial new one-volume history of the war illustrates, however, cliché is only part of the truth. Hew Strachan argues that the war had become a 'world war' long before the involvement of the United States, and that for those liberal countries struggling to defend their freedoms, the war was far from futile. Accessible, compelling and utterly convincing, and featuring a wealth of photographs many of which have never previously been published, this is modern history at its finest.…

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Hew Strachan's The First World War (2003) is widely regarded as one of the best single-volume histories of WWI, praised for its clarity, global scope, and ability to challenge clichés about the conflict. Strachan argues that the war was not simply futile slaughter led by incompetent generals. He shows how it was a global conflict long before U.S. involvement, with decisive campaigns in Africa, the Balkans, and the Ottoman Empire. He emphasizes that liberal countries saw the war as a defence of freedoms, not just imperial rivalry. Black boards with silver text to spine, wrapped in dust jacket. Clean unmarked pages.
