Great!

Big book with a good overview of battles, it covers pre-war tensions all the way to the Treaty of Versaille. This isn't just a picture book, it is a discussion and well done. It is most accurate. But this is the largest collection of photos Ive ever seen. Has different sections on the naval vs. land war and America entering the war. Even includes the Russian revolution. Some of the photos are so obscure that I had never seen then before like training, hospital ships and the giant bone piles of dead soldiers which is really gross. Photos are from American, British, German, Japanese and all different sources.
