4.9/5 (34712 ratings)

Description:The Myriad Faces of War is a unique and compelling study of the First World War from the standpoint of British involvement. It explores the reasons for Britain's entry into the war, the nature and course of British participation and the far-reaching repercussions of the war on British society. The result is a rich and comprehensive chronicle of the social, political, diplomatic and military aspects of the Great War. A distinctive feature of the book is the way in which the author draws on diaries and memoirs to reconstruct images of how the war was experienced, both by soldiers who were fighting at the front and by civilians who were remote from actual combat. We are presented with vivid accounts of how the war appeared to soldiers marching to Mons, fighting on the Somme, patrolling the North Sea, as well as accounts of how the war was perceived by the men and women who worked in the factories and fields at home. `The Myriad Faces of War' is the outcome of more than ten years research. High standards of scholarship are combined with a clear, accessible style and the text is illustrated throughout with maps and photographs. This book will be of great value not only to students of history and politics, but also to anyone who is interested in the social and military aspects of the Great War.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
