| THE FORGOTTEN FRONT: THE EAST AFRICAN CAMPAIGN 1914-1918 by Ross Anderson The First World War began in East Africa in July 1914 & did not end until 13 November 1918. In scale & impact, it was the largest conflict yet to take place on African soil. Four empires & their subject peoples were engaged in a conflict that ranged from modern Kenya in the north to Mozambique in the south, leaving hunger & devastation in its trail. Yet the East African campaign has languished in undeserved obscurity over the years, with many people only vaguely aware of its course of events. Africans bore the brunt of the fighting & few escaped the impact of the war2004, Tempus, , 0752423444,< D-04>,351pp. 37 ills. 14 maps , New in d/w, , Subject...World War I - Other TheatresWeb No. 31891-02..............................£25.00 |
