"Unlike many multi-authored editions, this one is carefully mapped out and coordinated. The contributors are well known in the scholarly community and include a good cross section of experts in the histories of the four major European belligerents...There is little to fault in this excellent selection of essays on the legacies of the two most devastating wars in world history." ?

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
Please note: We strongly recommend that you authorise using your personal Adobe ID after installation of any reading software.
