Eastern Front, The 1914-1920

With the aid of numerous black-and-white photographs, many previously unpublished, The History of World War I series recreates the battles and campaigns that raged across the surface of the globe, on land, at sea, and in the air.

The Eastern Front describes the conflict between the three Central Powers of Germany, Austria and Turkey, and Russia, from the invasion of East Prussia to the 1920 Russo-Polish War. It includes such battles and campaigns as Tannenberg, the Masurian Lakes, the Brusilov Offensive, the Russian surrender, and the battle for Warsaw. Detailed maps accompany boxes explaining key events, personalities, and weapons.
