From its origins to its terrible legacy, the tortuous and bloody course of the Great War is vividly set out in a series of 164 fascinating maps. Together the maps form a comprehensive and compelling picture of the war that shattered Europe, and illustrate its military, social, political and economic aspects. Beginning with the tensions that already existed, the atlas covers: the Early Months of the War: from the fall of Belgium to the fierce fighting at Ypres and Tannenberg; the Developing War in Europe: from Gallipoli to the horrors of the Somme and Verdun; life at the Front: from living underground, the trench system and the mud of Passchendaele to the war graves; war in the Air and at Sea: from the Zeppelin raids to the battles in the North Sea, shipping losses and the Atlantic convoys; technology and the New Horrors: from phosgene gas attacks to submarines, tanks and mines; the Home Fronts: from German food riots to the air defence of Britain, the Russian Revolution and the collapse of Austria-Hungary; the Aftermath: from war debts and war deaths to the new map of Europe.
