Note The book tells the story of the main events of the war, drawing on contemporary cartoons from Britain, France, Germany, the United States, Russia and other countries. The cartoons are used primarily to illustrate events: to make them more vivid to the r. der, but also to bring out aspects of those events which are easy to learn, but complex to comprehend. Why, for example, were people on both sides, of all stations and ranks, prepared to endure the privations and sufferings of the war?.
