Excerpt from Why Italy Is at War
In England, at this moment, the question of Home Rule for Ireland was threatening to reach _a violent crisis. In Russia the government was fully occupied in dealing with internal unrest and strikes of obscure origin. In Italy the recent labour troubles were still giving cause for anxiety; moreover, on account of the long and exhausting campaign in Libya and the negli gence of the Italian government, the country was quite unprepared for another war. The moment therefore had clearly arrived for Germany to realize her cherish ed dream of hegemony in Northern Europe, and for Austria to gain that Balkan supremacy which had been snatched from 'her hands by the two Balkan wars.

Product Description
Excerpt from Why Italy Is at War On June 28th 1914 the Grand Duke Francis Ferdinand, heir to the Austrian throne, and his wife, the Duchess of Hohenberg, were assassinated at Serajevo, the capital of Bosnia. As leader of the Austrian militarist party, the Grand Duke had been at no pains to disguise his contempt for Italy or his aggressive designs towards her. Yet the news of his murder was received among Italians with horror and indignation. Nothing but the profoundest pity was felt for the two unhappy victims of the hate which Austrian tyranny had roused in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a historical examination of the events that led to Italyâs entry into World War 1. It places Italyâs decision to join the war within the wider context of the complex political and military alliances that shaped Europe in the early 20th century. The author argues that Italy's decision to join the war was driven by a combination of factors, including the country's desire to protect its own interests in the Balkans and the Adriatic, and its fear of being isolated from the other major European powers. The book draws on a wide range of sources, including diplomatic documents, memoirs, and newspapers, to provide a detailed and nuanced account of Italy's role in the lead-up to the war. It offers a valuable contribution to our understanding of this complex and pivotal period in European history.
