Resumen:
From the Falkland Islands to the lakes of Africa, across the Eastern and Western Fronts, to the former German colonies in the Pacific, the World War I series provides a six-volume history of the battles and campaigns that raged on land, at sea and in the air. With the aid of over 300 black and white and colour photographs, complemented by full-colour maps, The Western Front 1914-1916 provides a detailed guide to the conflict on the Western Front in the early years of World War I, from the opening shots to the end of the Somme Offensive in late 1916. Describes the German retreat to the Hindenburg Line and the subsequent Allied attempts to dislodge them, the arrival of the first American troops, the last German attempt to win the war in the Spring Offensives, the new inter-Allied cooperation and command structure, and the subsequent great Allied victories in the last months of the war.
