Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

The 1914-1918 war was the first truly World War and the vast and devastating operations on the Western and Eastern Front dominate the history books. However, by the standards of previous military conflicts, the Palestine and Mesopotamia campaigns against the Turks were on an unprecedented scale.

Contraportada:

The 1914-1918 war was the first truly world war. This is often overlooked, for the vast and devastating operations on the Western and Eastern fronts dominate the collective memory of that terrible conflict. These have been dealt with in Volume 5 of this work. Yet that was a small, if disastrous, episode in an extraordinary struggle in which mounted troops played a significant role--one that is almost entirely dismissed in all accounts except that of the Official History. This volume of Lord Anglesey's magisterial history is chiefly concerned to put the record straight in this respect.
