The Global Crisis 1911-1918

This masterful work not only recounts Winston Churchill's testimony based on his role in the Great War, but also demonstrates that he was a brilliant historian.

An essential read for all those who wish to better understand the 20th century.

Winston Churchill was not only a great political and military leader, he was also a cultivated historian and a prolific writer awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1953. Throughout these pages, he masterfully narrates the dramatic details that, from 1911, began to forge a conflict on a global scale and that, finally, unleashed the so-called Great War.

He also describes the beginnings of the modern war concept dominated by high engineering, trenches, the terror of civilians and scientific advances.
