About This Item
Atlantic Monthly Press, New York, NY, 1998., 1998. Hardcover. Collectible, Fine/Fine. Octavo, hardcover, fine in fine blue and gray pictorial dj. Collectible. First printing. 23 B/W Photos, 6 Maps. The veteran British historian and biographer summarizes the causes, battles, and results of WWI. Palmer begins by declaring that this war ``determined the political and social character of the twentieth century'' and, like any other war, ``must never be romanticized. His chronicle is far from romantic. With plodding sobriety, Palmer takes readers from country to country, battle to battle, strategy session to surrender, always displaying his firm grasp of the facts, and just the facts, of relevant geography, culture, and character. 368 pp. including index.
