High-interest topics, an abundance of eye-catching photos and visuals, and accessible text are a mainstay of DK titles, and the entries in this DK findout! series are no exception. Each book begins with an introduction, followed by double-page spreads that provide a terrific overview of the subject through key concepts, history, and people. World War I briefly describes the pivotal events that set the war into motion; significant battles and front lines; U.S. involvement in the war; and how the war was fought in the skies, in trenches, and at sea. In addition to these basics, the text highlights such engaging aspects of the war as spying, propaganda, uniforms, war horses, depictions in popular culture, and the role of women. At-a-glance facts and figures round out each volume. With reluctant and visual readers in mind, this series offers useful information in an appealing format.--Leeper, Angela Copyright 2018 Booklist
