"The best concise introduction to and overview of World War I." "The best concise introduction to and overview of World War I."--Military Heritage "A concise, credible, lucid account of the causes, battles, politics, and consequences of the Great War. Howard compresses a mass of material, theory, and argument. His ambition, he states, is merely to introduce. But he does far more; he also engages and educates.... Demonstrates with clarity, craft, and precision that even in scholarship less can be more."--Kirkus Reviews "Succintly expressive, Howard's style concentrates narrative and interpretation within a few sentences, but a deep historical controversy often lurks behind his conclusion, such as who was responsible for igniting the war....Howard elegantly applies his erudition and judgement to this concise introduction."--Booklist "The best concise introduction to and overview of World War I."--Military Heritage "A concise, credible, lucid account of the causes, battles, politics, and consequences of the Great War.

This book is an insightful narrative history, focusing on why the First World War occurred, how it was fought, and why it had the consequences it did. It examines in turn the state of Europe in 1914 and the outbreak of war; the onset of attrition in 1915 and the extension of the war; the 'crisis of the war' (1917-18), the collapse of Russia and the weakening and eventual surrender of the Central Powers; the making of peace; and the historical controversies surrounding the causes and conduct of war.
