Britain knew that Europe could be saved only if the United States joined the war. But President Wilson was unshakable in his neutrality and in his efforts to mediate peace. Then, with a single stroke, the tool to propel the United States into World War I came into a quiet British office. One of countless messages intercepted and read by the crack team of British decoders in room 40, the Zimmermann telegram was a topsecret message to the President of Mexico, inviting Mexico to join Germany and Japan in an invasion of the United States. Mexico's reward: recovery of her lost American territories. Germany's goal: to keep American fully occupied on her side of the Atlantic. How Britain managed to inform the United States of Germany's plan without revealing that the German codes had been broken makes for an incredible, true story of espionage and intrigue as only Barbara W. Tuchman could tell it.Hide synopsis

Having read several other Tuchman historical books, I decided I needed to enlighten myself on this bit of pre-WW1 history. Very well done. I have not been able to find another author's work that did as well explaining how Germany's Zimmerman and his telegram to the Mexican government promising help ...

This book is about more than just the Zimmerman Telegram (which is only a small portion of the book). If you ever wanted to know about the US involvement with Mexico at the turn of the century, this is it.
A great book full of spies, diplomats and politics.
