Life Magazine, Vol. 67, No. 1746, April 13, 1916 "HUMILIATION ISSUE"
42 pages. A fascinating and important issue devoted to rousing American anger against Germany, particularly as a result of U.S. lives lost in the sinking of the Lusitania. Clearly, the people behind Life Magazine wanted the United States to become involved in WWI. Readers may draw parallels to recent history when 'fanatical Muslims' allegedly carried out the 9/11 attack, thus providing a pretext for George W. Bush to thrust his country into war in the Middle East. Covers detached from textblock. Last page almost loose. Unmarked. Above-average wear but still a quality copy of this significant piece of the historical record of America's road to entry into World War One. Magazine
