paperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. First Edition. Brooklyn. 2012. January 2012. Berghahn Books. 1st American Paperback Edition.

The focus of this volume is not on the consequences, but rather on the connection between the Great War and the long 19th century, the short- and long-term causes of World War I. This approach results in the questioning of many received ideas about the war's causes, especially the notion of 'inevitability.' inventory #41813.…
