1914: the Year the World Ended (obelisk)
About This Novel
In 1914, Germany, Austria, Russia, Britain, France and other countries plunged the world into a war that would cause 37 million casualties, destroy the traditional social structure, eradicate the ancient political system, and start a bloody century in human history. The author Paul Hamm tells the story of the outbreak of the First World War objectively and comprehensively from the perspectives of different countries, from the chaos in diplomatic activities to the blood and smoke on the Western Front battlefield, from the intrigues of the upper class to the suffering and sorrow of ordinary people. This book attempts to answer one of the most puzzling questions of the 20th century: why 1914 became "the year the world ended."
