the greatest day in History

Unlike in 1945 the first world war did not end neatly with the unconditional surrender of the germans. After the dramatic week of negotiations , military offensives and the beggining of communist revolution , the GERMAN imperial regime collapsed. the kaiser fled to holland. The allies eventually granted an armistice to a new GERMAN government , and 11.00hrs on november 11 , the guns officially ceased fire, but only after 11,000 casualties has been sustained more than on the DAY. the story of this remarkable day has never been told properly, and yet the roll call of eyewitnesses who left us their impressions includes adolf hitler , charles de gaulle , harry S. Truman, Anthony Eden, Marie Curie, Maurice Chevalier, Richard strauss and more future generals.. revealing that events were far from pre-ordained.

How the great war really ENDED. this volume sets as an example that will be hard to equal
the book is undoubtedly an enthralling read, miscelleny tragedy mixed with delight. this book is really awesome!!
