The Great World War, 1914-1945 by Peter Liddle

The Great World War, 1914-1945 by Peter Liddle

This title reveals the truly global impact of the 1914-18 and 1939-45 conflicts and their enduring legacy in the modern world. Boundaries were re-drawn, not just on the political map, but socially too: the wars brought women into the factories and even the frontline. Newly independent nations established themselves: the wars were defining moments for Australia, Canada and New Zealand. African and Asian troops fought for the French and British Empires with very different experiences. Modern Russia has a life expectancy no greater than that achieved by 1914: perhaps no other country is still so deeply in the shadow of the Great World War.

By the same team that created The Great War 1914-45, a ground-breaking analysis of global conflict: Nine of the contributors hold UK University Chairs. Others include 7 Americans, 5 Germans, 2 Russians, plus Belgian, Chinese, Japanese, Arab and other contributors.
