Sinopsis
A powerful visual and narrative treatment of the "war to end all wars".
The First World War in 100 Objects draws on the most interesting 100 items that describe the causes, progress and outcome of the First World War. From weapons that created carnage to affectionate letters home, these 100 objects are as extraordinary in their diversity and storytelling power as they are devastating in their poignancy. This is the stuff of war at its most horrible.
Here are a few of these objects:
- military significance -- a Vickers machine gun
- iconic power -- John Singer Sargent's painting, Gassed
- personal sentiment -- a German button given to a British Tommy in the Christmas Truce of 1914
- political importance -- President Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points.
These and the other 96 objects are displayed in brief chapters describing the associated people and events and illustrated with full color. The book is carefully organized into distinctive periods of the war and includes these examples:
A History of the First World War in 100 Objects is a distinctive and original presentation of the military and human stories of this cataclysmic war that did indeed change the world.
