The Compacted Book of World War 1 by History Compacted,Kimberly Miller Pdf

- VICE AND VALOR - - LIFE AND DEATH - - DECEPTION AND THE TRUTH - Impress your friends and loved ones with a treasure trove of knowledge! In September of 1914, our world was forever changed, the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand proving enough to spark conflict on a global scale unprecedented. What's more, the stage was set for political and cultural upheavals that would continue for decades. Nations would ride to the sides of their allies and split the world in two en route, no side coming out unscathed. The Great War, as it would come to be known, brought with it great advancements and new technologies. Meanwhile, trench warfare and weaponized gas altered the face of combat itself. These new inventions would make war more deadly than ever, contributing to more than forty million deaths worldwide. Tragic though man's losses were, the annals of history are replete with fascinating tales of courage-from soldiers who fought corruption to nurses who took a stand against malevolent occupation. By examining the intricacies of WWI, we can better appreciate the toll taken on the dozens of nations directly involved. How much do YOU understand about this mighty melee? In this historical trivia book designed for the layperson, you'll get a front-line look at amazing stories of heroism and epic battles, along with over 150 expert questions to help you learn even more about the first-ever World War. Wieldy chapter sizes guarantee you, too, will be a buff. And finding time for such explosive stuff should be no challenge... The truth is far more powerful than any form of fiction known. So, arm yourself with knowledge and assess the world anew!

A look back at one of the seminal, and deadliest, events of the twentieth century: World War I. The savagery of the fighting, the appalling conditions endured by the soldiers, and the sheer scale of the carnage have seared images of World War I into the public memory.

It covers such subjects as the Western and Eastern Fronts, US entry into the war in 1917, the war in Africa, the Russian Revolution, the war at sea, the role of women, and diplomacy in war. Combining a vivid narrative informed by up-to-date research with an array of original documents and memorabilia, including photographs, propaganda, newspapers, personal letters, and military orders, The First World War Remembered brings to life one of the most terrible periods of warfare the world has ever known. Reissue in new format.

UN Global Compacts by Nicholas R. Micinski Pdf

UN Global Compacts is a concise introduction to the key concepts, issues, and actors in global migration governance and presents a comprehensive analysis of the New York Declaration for Refugees and Migrants, the Global Compact on Refugees, and the Global Compact for Migration. The book places the declaration and compacts within their historical context, traces the evolution of global migration governance, and evaluates the implementation of the compacts. Ultimately, the global compacts were the result of three wider shifts in global governance from hard to soft law, from rights to aid, and from Cold War politics to nationalism. The book is an important contribution to international relations and migration studies and provides essential information on the NY declaration and the global compacts, in addition to an examination of the: • Negotiating blocs and strategies • Populist backlash to the Global Compact for Migration • Responsibility sharing for refugee protection • Human rights of migrants • Principle of non-refoulement • Comprehensive Refugee Response Framework • UNHCR, IOM, and the UN Network on Migration The book will be of interest to practitioners, students, and scholars of international cooperation, global governance, migrants, and refugees, and will be essential reading for graduate and undergraduate courses on international law, international organizations, and migration.

World War I by Hourly History Pdf

World War I World War I, or the Great War, was believed to be "the war to end all wars." Because of the incredible extent of destruction and the staggering number of wounded and dead, even those who lived through it could scarcely comprehend its horror. Beginning in 1914, alliances between powerful nations soon plunged the world into a global conflict. Fighting-including miserable trench warfare-broke out in practically every corner of Europe and spread around the world to Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. Inside you will read about... - The Causes of World War I - The War in Europe: The Western Front - The War in the Balkans and the Ottoman Empire - The United States - Russia and the War in Eastern Europe - The Impact of World War I And much more! Even the peace treaty in 1919, which occurred during a deadly worldwide influenza pandemic, brought no relief; another world war, intricately connected to the first, would break out in only two short decades.
