The three volumes of The Cambridge History of the First World War provide a comprehensive account of the military, political, social, economic and cultural history of the conflict. Written by an international team of scholars and global in scope, the books follow the course of the war and how it unfolded beyond Europe to transform the Middle East, Africa, Asia and the Americas.
Volume I: Global War
After a narrative history of the war as ‘an unfolding catastrophe’, the authors trace the impact of a conflict facilitated by globalization and imperial expansion.
Volume II: The State
In sections on politics, armed forces, war economies and the search for peace, this volume tells the story of the War as a test of state and imperial power.
Volume III: Civil Society
Approaching the social and cultural history of the war transnationally, volume three describes the staggering damage inflicted on civil society by the war.
