The Oxford Illustrated History of the First World War: New Edition

Author: Hew Strachan
Stars: 3
Review by: Mandy Apgar

It was good for this - presenting the origins of the War in a clear and understandable way. Plenty of photos and the like, it is a new edition of an 80th anniversary book done prior. Where it faltered was not really explaining who everyone was all the time. Once things got pretty in deep, it was one name after another and not as much back story as earlier in the book.
