Coppell's Smithsonian "world War I: Lessons And Legacies" Exhibition

The Cozby Library and Community Commons invites you to a special exhibition exploring how the lessons and legacies of World War I continue to affect the United States today. Sparked by the assassination of one man, the war eventually included the forces of the world's major industrial powers (over 18 countries in all) and ended with millions dead. But beyond the countries involved and the people affected, World War I gave rise to significant and enduring changes in America. World War I: Lessons and Legacies is on view November 8 - 22.

The poster exhibition is brought to you courtesy of the Smithsonian and The United States World War I Centennial Commission. World War I: Lessons and Legacies is organized by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service and the National Museum of American History, with funding from The United States World War I Centennial Commission and the Smithsonian Women’s Committee.
