A Concise Chronicle of Events of the Great War

This volume offers a day‑by‑day record of the First World War’s major military milestones, compiled by a former army captain who served in military intelligence. The author has stripped away maps and excess narrative, presenting dates, battle names, and brief assessments of objectives and outcomes in a straightforward layout. Readers will find concise entries for each year from 1914 through 1919, plus a short introduction that explains the method behind the chronology. The text is anchored by references to official sources, ensuring the information remains reliable and scholarly.

Beyond the yearly listings, the work includes seven appendices that reproduce consequential documents that sparked the conflict and eventually ended it, such as the Austrian ultimatum to Serbia and President Wilson’s Fourteen Points, along with a distilled summary of the Treaty of Versailles covering the military clauses. Cross‑references guide the listener to related entries, and the index makes it easy to locate specific battles or locations. For anyone wanting a clear snapshot of how the war unfolded and was concluded, this chronicle provides a compact yet thorough guide.
