Oxford History of the First World War

A panoramic encyclopedia about the First World War. In addition to the war, it also includes a large amount of history surrounding the war in social life, social ideological trends, economic culture and other aspects. The war section provides an overview of the Western Front battlefield, the Eastern Front battlefield, the Balkan battlefield, the Turkish battlefield, the African battlefield and the naval battle respectively. Different from traditional World War I history books, this book does not devote all its ink to the war between the major participating countries. It also presents the battlefields of Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania, Turkey and African countries in many aspects, making the meaning of "world war" more prominent. The social life part includes people's lives during the war, economic changes, capital production, feminism, labor movement, changes in nationalism and liberalism, etc. The significance of World War I was not only the losses caused by the war itself, but also the changes brought about by the war. From this dimension, this book highlights the core significance of "World War" both horizontally and vertically.
