To Arms is Hew Strachan's most complete and definitive study of the
opening of the First World War. Now, key sections from this
magisterial work are published as individual paperbacks, each
complete in itself, and with a new introduction by the author. Ever
since its outbreak in 1914, the causes of the First World War have
been one of the major debates in world history. For some it was a
war engineered by Germany, and a pointer towards Hitler. For others
it was the product of miscalculation - a verdict whose poignancy is
heightened by the knowledge of what followed. The Outbreak of the
First World War eschews either extreme. Instead, the first half of
this book approaches the issues from the perspectives of those who
grappled with conflicting priorities and vital national interests.
The second considers the responses of their peoples and the
so-called 'ideas of 1914'. This was the crisis which, more than any
other, shaped the twentieth century.
