Buchan covered World War I for The Times of London, as well as working for Britain’s War Propaganda Bureau. This first volume of his observations begins on the eve of the Great War, and discusses battles on land and at sea, the politics and economics of the war, as well as many countries’ entry into the war—the book leaves off in 1915 with the battle of Neuve Chapelle.
