5789. The Many Faces of World War I, by Irving Werstein (read 2 May 2022) This 184-page book was published in 1963 so it looks back on the first World War with a certain perceptive and in a very elementary way, making snap judgments on many things, some of which are questionable. Obviously it deals with many momentous events--many of which I have read whole books about--in a paragraph or two. The first World War has often been a consuming interest of mine and yet I found this little book of much interest, reminding me of the many subjects it touches lightly upon and which are of great importance. This book would be a good book for a youth who knows little of those fantastic events occurring in the years 1914 to 1918 to be introduced to a consideration of them. ( )
