Summaries and Reviews
Summary
Challenging long-established ideas about the 'Great War,' the author suggests that the war was not caused by politicians losing control, but rather by their deliberate brinksmanship, a penchant for confrontation that was accentuated by an equal measure of callousness for the casualties once the war started. 50,000 first printing.
