The World Aflame

This is the epic and world-changing story, in words and colourized images, of global conflict from the assassination of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand to the obliteration of Hiroshima by the first atom bomb. The book embraces not only the world wars of 1914-18 and 1939-45 and the conflicting ideologies and malign economic forces that set them in train, but also the civil and other wars of the interwar period in Ireland, Spain and Latin America.
