War Aims and Strategic Policy in the Great War 1914-1918 (RLE The First World War) Paperback / softback

Edited by Barry Hunt, Adrian Preston

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: The First World War series

Paperback / softback

Description

Recent research has largely destroyed the fallacy that most of the powers declared war in 1914 without any clear perception of why and to what ultimate end.

War aims were the subject of frequent examination, although decisions to publicise the results depended on a number of factors affecting both national and alliance politics.

This book is a collection of original essays by six distinguished scholars dealing with the problem of the major powers’ political aims and military strategies during World War I.

The contributors write from the viewpoint of their own special interests and research and so offer a broad spectrum of ideas on the main theme of the book.
