About halfway through this book I realized I had read it before - as a boy of eight, checking it out of the library. S.L.A. Marshall's book is fine so far as it goes, but it is outdated and far better books have been written about World War I since. (

A moderately detailed look at the battles in WWI if not the forces that led to them. (

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0828104344, Paperback)

The assassination of the archduke of Austria-Hungary in 1914 triggered more than a monstrous war; it set off a revolution so violent that it reshaped the thoughts and affairs of mankind, perhaps for all time. Marshall's book is a clear one-volume history of the "war to end all wars."
