Description
An English World War I enlistment poster from 1915. The text at the bottom reads "Remember the Lusitania. It is your duty to take up the sword of justice to avenge this devil's work. Enlist Today." The Lusitania was sunk on May 7th, 1915, by a German U-boat, killing 1,195 passengers, including 123 Americans. The sinking of the Lusitania provoked great outrage in the United States and swayed public opinion that would later allow America to join the war.
