Books
On the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War, 'The Deluge' is a powerful explanation of why the war's legacy continues to shape our world. In the depths of the Great War, with millions of dead and no imaginable end to the conflict, societies around the world began to buckle. As the cataclysmic battles continued, a new global order was being born. Adam Tooze's book tells a radical, new story of the struggle for global mastery from the battles of the Western Front in 1916 to the Great Depression of the 1930s.
