The Causes and Consequences series explains to older readers the contributory factors leading up to some of the most significant events of the twentieth century, and the effects of those events on the world. The books use contemporary photographs, maps and diagrams, writings and quotations to build a dramatic picture for the reader. They show how often errors in world leadership, misfortune, the power of popular movements or the vision of individuals have shaped world affairs this century.

The First World War

This book offers a concise and accessible account of the events that led up to the First World War and its impact on the subsequent history of the world. The author describes the complex political alliances that preceded the out break of hostilities. He conveys the horror of trench warfare and describes the response of writers, poets and painters to the suffering of the troops. The human and economic cost of the war to countries throughout the world is carefully analysed as is the disastrous failure of the Treaty of Versailles and the League of Nations to forge a lasting peace.
