Opis

More than any other event, the First World War made the twentieth century. In this boldly conceived book, aimed to appeal not only to students but also to the general reader, Niall Ferguson explodes many of the myths surrounding the war.

Publisher and industry reviews

UK Kirkus review
Timed to coincide with the 80th anniversary of the Armistice, this new interpretation of World War I by one of our most exciting young historians is likely to become the most read book on the subject for some years. Engagingly written and incisive in its judgements, it deals with its political background and military course, no less than its economic consequences and enduring cultural significance. From predictions of war to the enthusiasm to join up, and from the horror of battlefields, Ferguson brings a narrative power and lightness of touch. His provocative argument is that conflict in 1914 was far from inevitable, and that Britain's involvement brought about a global nightmare. (Kirkus UK)
