This compact and richly illustrated publication focuses on the most important military events of the war years 1914-1918, but also on the way of the Habsburg Monarchy into the war, the combat procedures of the Austro-Hungarian Army, its uniforming and armament, the activities of the Imperial and Royal Navy during the World War. Thanks to the impressive visual material, the fate of the ordinary soldiers and their hard everyday life at the fronts are revealed in an oppressive way. Based on the latest scientific findings, Ortner thus manages to provide a precise insight into the challenges and the ever-changing fortunes of war in the Imperial and Royal Army. The photographic material is almost exclusively taken from the wars of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The photographic material comes almost exclusively from private archives with never-before-published original photos, which make this book a successful overview work on the Austro-Hungarian army in its last war.
