This has got to be one of the most important history books for our time. It was recommended to me by a friend. If you want to get a glimpse of the geo-policical climate during the lead up and after the Great War, from the view point of all European nations and peoples involved, I think this is the book for you. Thank you Margaret MacMillian for sharing your research and a job well done.
