Complete and unabridged, with 60 full-page plates by Henry Sargent, Edvard Munch and C. R. W. Nevinson. An Argentine landowner's family is split by the war: two daughters married into France and Germany, cousins in opposing armies, and the old man's fortune paying for both. Blasco Ibáñez was jailed some thirty times as a republican agitator in Valencia; this 1916 novel sold in millions, made Valentino a star, and gave the century the phrase it still uses for catastrophe. Sixty plates range from Matisse's rooms at Nice to Courbet's Château d'Ornans, a visual counterpoint to a novel of war, exile, and the old world the Horsemen ride down.
