World War One

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'The book is beautifully produced and presented ... Maps and illustrations are expertly annotated and placed where they belong in the book. Cambridge [University Press] can be well proud of this superb book. It deserves to be widely used on college courses on the Great War.' Holger Herwig, Journal of Military History 'Comparative histories of the First World War are still rare, which in itself makes Lawrence Sondhaus' foray into this field welcome.' John Gooch, European History Quarterly '... this survey of the Great War is masterful.' James D. Scudieri, Parameters: The US Army War College Quarterly 'Sondhaus has packed a lot into his pages, and his text deserves a prominent place on reading lists for First World War and general twentieth-century history courses.' William Philpott, Diplomacy & Statecraft 'An excellent political and strategic overview of World War I ... has given us a very broad look at the origins, events, and consequences of the war, setting it more firmly into its global context than has hitherto been the case. [Sondhaus'] approach to presenting the story of the war is rather innovative and very valuable.' A. A. Nofi, strategypage.com
