A huge number of books have been written about the First World War - documentary and memoir, review and dedicated to individual operations. However, most of them are purely descriptive: they more or less detail the chronicle of certain events, without giving them an analysis. In this regard, Liddel-Garth's book compares favorably with most other works: it not only contains a general overview of the events of the Great War, but also gives an analytical analysis of them.
