Military history is now a best-selling publishing category, and in recent years there has been a spate of enormously successful books, films and television programmes devoted to it. The First World War in Photographs showcases 400 of the best images from the Imperial War Museum's superb photographic archive, many never before published. Written by leading military historian Richard Holmes, the book presents the photographs in year-by-year chapters, covering all the great battles of the war and every theatre of operations. Dramatic, hard hitting and intensely moving, this book is a unique visual testament to the many millions of men and women who lost their lives in the war.

Charting the Allies' entry into warfare in 1914, Max Arthur tells the story in words and pictures of the new conscripted army's life through the five years of slaughter and suffering. He brilliantly conveys not only the heroism, but also the universal horror, futility, humour and boredom of warfare. From the front-line troops and the daily dice with death, to the support lines, communications, enlistment, training and propaganda, every aspect of the soldier's life is covered in this brilliant collection of images and interviews that brings the Great War to life once more.
