This book is a history of the First World War told from the anthropological perspective. It is the story of its individual participants - soldiers, civilians, women. It looks at the war in terms of its everyday life, its economic affairs, migrations, invasions and military occupation, the role of its civilian infrastructure, and the impact of the national question; and it provides a clinical analysis of its models of ground warfare.
