This book deals with an aspect of the Great War that has been largely overlooked: the war reportage written based on British and American authors¿ experiences at the Western Front. It focuses on how the liminal experience of the First World War was portrayed in a series of works of literary journalism at different stages of the conflict, from the summer of 1914 to the Armistice in November 1918.
