  • "This mass-produced German war atlas was published in Munich in late 1916 by G. Schuh & Company. For 30 pfennigs (about $2.00 today), an anxious German mother or curious schoolchild could get an up-to-date series of maps that showed the status of the Eastern Front between modern-day Latvia and Romania. A bold red line punctuates maps that show primary settlements, transportation networks, and pictorial topography with hachured contours. The steady and uniform depiction of such a complex notion as 'the front' is frankly absurd, and the atlas was possibly issued to bolster morale amid the Russians' devastating Brusilov offensive that summer."--Curtis Wright Maps
