Written by Professor L. C. F. Turner, Royal Military College of Australia. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the events leading up to the outbreak of the First World War. Professor Turner highlights many misconceptions regarding the causes. Above all he provides a succinct and critical account of the way in which the breakdown of international relations was finally precipitated in 1914 by the succession of diplomatic crisis in the Mediterranean since 1905, by the intractable problem of Slav nationalism in the Balkans.
This book may be used as a comprehensive workbook by 'A' level and university students alike. Summary provided by University press Publications.
