    Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. Centenary Edit. boxed,132 pages : illustrations, maps, portraits, facsimiles ; 30 cm + 1 DVD, loose documents. "This centenary edition contains 30 facsimile documents and a DVD with a documentary film and first-hand accounts" Cover.-Published in association with the Imperial War Museum.-Index: p. 130-131.-The First World War was one of the seminal events of the twentieth century. The savagery of the fighting, the appalling conditions endured by the soldiers, and the sheer scale of the carnage have seared images of the War into the public memory: trenches, barbed wire, machine guns, artillery, and enormous cemeteries. Millions of men fought in the trenches, many died, and many more were maimed in mind or body. This book shows the wide sweep of the conflict, describing the development of the fighting from 1914-1918, spotlighting some of the obscure but important actions as well as the major battles and the soldiers who fought them" "Gary Sheffield's authoritative text is supplemented by over 200 photographs and colour battle maps, as well as more than 30 painstakingly researched rare facsimile documents - personal and unit war diaries, letters, secret plans and telegrams, orders, maps and posters- that until now have been filed or exhibited in museums and archives around the world--Back cover." "Material from this book was originally published in 'The Western Front experience' by Gary Sheffield in 2008"--Title page verso "The DVD in this book contains a film entitled 'Our Empire's fight for freedom' and a series of veterans' first-hand accounts entitled 'We fought on the Western Front"--Back cover Published in association with the Imperial War Museum.
