World War I, or the Great War, was believed to be "the war to end all wars." Because of the incredible extent of destruction and the staggering number of wounded and dead, even those who lived through it could scarcely comprehend its horror. Beginning in 1914, alliances between powerful nations soon plunged the world into a global conflict. Fighting-including miserable trench warfare-broke out in practically every corner of Europe and spread around the world to Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. You'll learn:What roles did nationalism, colonialism, and the European alliance structure play in the start of the war? Who thought that trench warfare was a good idea? Why did the Germans wear those spiked helmets? How did chemical warfare get introduced and what role did it play? How did the rise of communism seriously affect the course of the war? The most of these operations were hidden from the public since that was the only way they could be successfully carried out, but in the years since, stories about various missions have emerged. They paint a picture of incredible courage and ingenuity, whether in war zones, enemy territory, or far from the front lines.
