About this audiobook
Humanity's worst curse- GREED -once again played its dice in a vicious move!
You must have read so much about the immense death and destruction that the World War 1 caused. The dreadful fate it brought upon humanity. However, a much deeper and cruel assault was made by the forces of war on the common masses which is hardly ever told. The assault on their food, water, clothing, shelter and other essentials.
The saga in this book revolves around the factual and humane description of this economic assault on Europe's stomach and the greed of major players who were involved in its genesis and consequence. So, hang on and witness the enrapturing verbal illustration of one of the worst eras of human history.
