This book was released on 2017-12-03 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Horrors and Atrocities of the Great War, Including the Tragic Destruction of the Lusitania The most heroic pages of history have been written on battlefields. The moments of supreme courage, effort, and achievement in the life of man have been when he has shouldered arms and faced the invader and persecutor. War is a horrible and hateful thing; at best it is a terrible, lamentable necessity. But it does not make cowards of brave and honest men; it does frequently inspire the timid and hesitating with the fire of valor and resolution to a degree undreamed of. So it is that in War we find stories of intrepidity, and deeds palpitating with heroism, such as only the crises of supreme danger and necessity could inspire; and we treasure these stories as part of the priceless heritage of humanity, that children and grandchildren may remember the valor of their sires; we tell and retell them, we preserve them in the volumes of the historian, on the canvas of the artist, we chisel them in stone, that men may re member the price paid for liberty and virtue.

Book Lusitania

    Book Details:
  • Author : Diana Preston
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing USA
  • Release : 2015-05-05
  • ISBN : 1632860856
  • Pages : 787 pages

Download or read book Lusitania written by Diana Preston and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2015-05-05 with total page 787 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On May 7, 1915, toward the end of her 101st eastbound crossing, from New York to Liverpool, England, R.M.S. Lusitania-pride of the Cunard Line and one of the greatest ocean liners afloat-became the target of a terrifying new weapon and a casualty of a terrible new kind of war. Sunk off the southern coast of Ireland by a torpedo fired from the German submarine U-20, she exploded and sank in eighteen minutes, taking with her some twelve hundred people, more than half of the passengers and crew. Cold-blooded, deliberate, and unprecedented in the annals of war, the sinking of the Lusitania shocked the world. It also jolted the United States out of its neutrality and hastened the nation's entry into World War I. In her riveting account of this enormous and controversial tragedy, Diana Preston recalls both a pivotal moment in history and a remarkable human drama. The story of the Lusitania is a window on the maritime world of the early twentieth century: the heyday of the luxury liner, the first days of the modern submarine, and the climax of the decades-long German-British rivalry for supremacy of the Atlantic. Above all, it is the story of the passengers and crew on that fateful voyage-a story of terror and cowardice, of self-sacrifice and heroism, of death and miraculous survival.

  • Publisher : The History Press
  • Release : 2011-11-30
  • ISBN : 0752479210
  • Pages : 357 pages

Download or read book Trench Talk written by Peter Doyle and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2011-11-30 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First World War largely directed the course of the twentieth century. Fought on three continents, the war saw 14 million killed and 34 million wounded. Its impact shaped the world we live in today, and the language of the trenches continues to live in the modern consciousness.One of the enduring myths of the First World War is that the experience of the trenches was not talked about. Yet dozens of words entered or became familiar in the English language as a direct result of the soldiers’ experiences. This book looks at how the experience of the First World War changed the English language, adding words that were both in slang and standard military use, and modifying the usage and connotations of existing words and phrases. Illustrated with material from the authors’ collections and photographs of the objects of the war, the book will look at how the words emerged into everyday language.

Book For Home and Country

    Book Details:
  • Author : Celia M. Kingsbury
  • Publisher : U of Nebraska Press
  • Release : 2010-07-01
  • ISBN : 0803228325
  • Pages : 326 pages

Download or read book For Home and Country written by Celia M. Kingsbury and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Home and Country examines the propaganda that targeted noncombatants on the home front in the United States and Europe during World War I. Cookbooks, popular magazines, romance novels, and government food agencies targeted women in their homes, especially their kitchens, pressuring them to change their domestic habits. Children were also taught to fear the enemy and support the war through propaganda in the form of toys, games, and books. And when women and children were not the recipients of propaganda, they were often used in propaganda to target men. By examining a diverse collection of literary texts, songs, posters, and toys, Celia Malone Kingsbury reveals how these pervasive materials were used to fight the war's cultural battle.
