Summary "A School History of the Great War" by Albert E. McKinley, Charles A. Coulomb, and Armand J. Gerson is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book provides an insightful examination of the complex factors leading to the Great War, rooted deeply in European historical context, national ambitions, and international relations. Its likely aim is to educate a younger audience on the causes, events, and implications of World War I, providing a comprehensive view suited for grades seven and eight. The beginning of the work outlines the necessity of understanding the Great War beyond mere military events, emphasizing the importance of prior national histories and conflicts. It discusses the pre-war European landscape, including the rise of nationalism, democratic movements, and detailed accounts of various countries' political systems and military ambitions. The opening chapters set the stage for a thorough analysis of how the interconnected desires for land, power, and influence among nations led to the eruption of one of the deadliest conflicts in history.
