Paperback. Condizione: Good. 710 pages. Cover worn.xxxvii, 628 pages, 32 unnumbered pages of plates : 24 cm In 1914, Europe plunged into the 20th century' s first terrible act of self-immolation- what was then called The Great War. On the eve of its centenary, Max Hastings seeks to ex plain both how the conflict came about and what befell millions o f men and women during the first months of strife. He finds the e vidence overwhelming, that Austria and Germany must accept princi pal blame for the outbreak From the acclaimed military historian , a new history of the outbreak of World War I: from the breakdow n of diplomacy to the dramatic battles that occurred before the w ar bogged down in the trenches. World War I immediately evokes im ages of the trenches: grinding, halting battles that sacrificed m illions of lives for no territory or visible gain. Yet the first months of the war, from the German invasion of Belgium to the Mar ne to Ypres, were utterly different, full of advances and retreat s, tactical maneuvering, and significant gains and losses. In Cat astrophe 1914, Max Hastings re-creates this dramatic year, from t he diplomatic crisis to the fighting in Belgium and France on the Western front, and Serbia and Galicia to the east. He gives vivi d accounts of the battles and frank assessments of generals and p olitical leaders, and shows why it was inevitable that this first war among modern industrial nations could not produce a decisive victory, making a war of attrition inevitable. Throughout we enc ounter high officials and average soldiers, as well as civilians on the homefront, giving us a vivid portrait of how a continent b ecame embroiled in a war that would change everything-- Includes bibliographical references (pages 595-603) and index 1914 chron ology -- The organisation of armies in 1914 -- Prologue : Sarajev o -- 'A feeling that events are in the air': Change and decay ; B attle plans -- The descent to war: The Austrians threaten ; The R ussians react ; The Germans march ; The British decide -- 'The su perb spectacle of the world bursting into flames': Migrations ; P assions ; Departures -- Disaster on the Drina -- Death with flags and trumpets: The execution of Plan XVII ; 'German beastliness' ; Lanrezac encounters Schlieffen -- The British fight: Mons ; Le Cateau, 'Where the fun comes in, I don't know' -- The retreat -- Tannenberg : 'Alas, how many thousands lie there bleeding!' -- Th e hour of Joffre: Paris at bay ; Sir John despairs ; Seeds of hop e -- The nemesis of Moltke: The Marne ; 'Stalemate in our favour' -- 'Poor devils, they fought their ships like men' -- Three armi es in Poland -- 'Did you ever dance with him?': Home fronts ; New s and abuse -- Open country, open sky: Churchill's adventure ; 'I nventions of the devil' -- Ypres : 'Something that was completely hopeless' -- 'War becomes the scourge of mankind': Poland ; The Serbs' last triumph -- Mudlife -- Silent night, holy night.
