Understanding the First World War: Illusions and Realities (American University Studies, Series IX : History, Vol 37) - Hardcover
Synopsis
This book offers a fresh perspective on the First World War. The unmitigated calamity of that war has always encouraged numerous historians to lay the blame for the long conflict at the doors of the politicians and generals of the time. The numerous misapprehensions and distortions which followed took insufficient account of the circumstances on the Allied side which dictated that the war must be a long and costly one. Thus the British were to suffer endless adversity until they were able to play their leading role in achieving the victory.
