The Western Front in World War I Summary

The Western Front in World War I by Paul Dowswell

This book explores the Western Front in the First World War by looking at how newspapers reported the battles and experiences of soldiers at that time. Topics include the conditions in the trenches, famous battles, propaganda, the arrival of US troops and the end of the war. Each article is accompanied with text which sets it in historical context, and which demonstrates how, with the benefit of hindsight, our perspective on events may be different from those of people living through the war. Each article is also critically evaluated as a piece of historical evidence.

The Western Front in World War I Reviews

'The evaluation of each newspaper report as an historical document here makes these books useful tools for early to mid-teens getting into the swing of appraising the information presented to them in a critical and objective manner.' -- Evening Echo 20030201
