About this ebook
A pictorial history of events that occurred during World War I in 1918.
The final book in a series of five titles which graphically cover each year of the war. Countless thousands of pictures were taken by photographers on all sides during the First World War. These pictures appeared in the magazines, journals, and newspapers of the time. Some illustrations went on to become part of postwar archives and have appeared, and continue to appear, in present-day publications and TV documentary programs—many did not. The Great War Illustrated series, beginning with the year 1914, includes in its pages many rarely seen images with individual numbers allocated, and subsequently they will be lodged with the Taylor Library Archive for use by editors and authors.
While some of the images in The Great War Illustrated 1918 will be familiar, many will be seen for the first time by a new generation interested in the months that changed the world for ever.
Praise for The Great War Illustrated 1918
“Add this book to the others in the series and you have the most comprehensive photographic record of WWI.” —The Armourer, Editor's Choice
“This has been a fantastic series of books and this last volume has maintained the standard from first to last.” —War History Online
