"When World War I broke out, Europe had not experienced a war involving all the major powers for nearly a century, since Napoleon's defeat in 1815. As a result, people had an unrealistic view of warfare. Many expected the war to be short and romantic. Many men enlisted in the army because of patriotism or out of a desire to defend certain institutions. What the soldiers experienced changed their view of war forever."
Your Assignment:
1.) Read the Primary and Secondary sources on page 857.
2.) What reasons does Woodrow Wilson (Source A) give for entering war?
3.) What emotions does the French poster (Propaganda Source D) try to arouse?
4.) Judging from Sources B and C, what was it like for the average soldier in the trenches? Explain how you think such experiences affected the average soldier's view of war.
Due: Sunday 4/18/10 by no later than 11:59p.m.
