Written in the early 20th century, following the war's initial phases, the book utilizes satirical illustrations to comment on the military and political landscape during this tumultuous time. The work aims to capture public sentiment and critique the actions taken by various nations involved in the war. The book presents a series of cartoons that highlight significant military operations, such as the German offensive at Verdun and the entry of Bulgaria into the war. Each cartoon serves as a poignant commentary on both the actions of military leaders and the broader implications of the war on civilian populations and countries. The illustrations reflect a grim sense of irony and criticism, depicting events such as the brutal execution of Nurse Edith Cavell, the atrocities against Armenians, and the political maneuvers among neutral countries, including Germany's manipulation of peace offers. Through these visuals and accompanying narratives, Raemaekers effectively conveys the horrors and complexities of World War I, making it a powerful tool for understanding the historical context of the conflict.
