Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a long, hard look at the increasingly adversarial relationship between England and Germany in the early 20th century. The author, a Belgian writer and academic, attempts to set the record straight on several popular misunderstandings and misrepresentations propagated by the press and the public on both sides of the conflict that led to World War I. The author traces the roots of German resentment to decades of British policy in Africa and in supporting France, their traditional European rival. He also examines the saber-rattling of the German military, their rapid naval expansion, and the domestic political situation in Germany that encouraged a confrontational stance toward England. The book concludes that the popular press on both sides, along with the bellicose public mood cultivated by the German aristocracy and military class, set the stage for the outbreak of hostilities in 1914.
