Focusing on German soldier newspapers from the First World War, this study explores how these publications reflected the daily life and beliefs of frontline soldiers. Read by millions, they illustrated a strong sense of comradeship and duty, portraying the war as a noble effort to civilize perceived backward populations. The analysis also compares these German perspectives with those from French, British, Australian, and Canadian newspapers, providing a broader understanding of the combatants' views on both sides of the conflict.
