Join local author Noretta Willig to mark the centennial of World War I and her very personal book, Carl’s Story.
Also known as the Great War, World War I (1914-1918) was Earth’s first truly global war. More than 70 million military combatants took part on multiple continents, but primarily in Europe. The war caused the collapse of long-standing empires and brought the ideology of Karl Marx (1818-1883) to world attention with the establishment of the Soviet Union (1922-1991). Unresolved issues from World War I played a key role in what became World War II (1939-1945).
Carl’s Story is that of Noretta Willig’s uncle, who served in Europe and died just days before the war’s conclusion. For more information, call (412) 621-4253.
