The debate about the conflict which transformed Europe between 1914
and 1918 is one of the most fundamental in modern European history.
This book, based on public lectures given in Oxford, makes two
distinctive contributions to that debate. It presents readable and
judicious accounts of the events and decisions which directly
precipitated the outbreak of war in each of the main countries and
assesses the role of public opinion and popular mood in determining
and responding to the "July Crisis." The book offers a stimulating
survey of the historiography of the immediate causes of the war,
before and since the famous "Fischer controversy" over German
responsibility, and new reflections on the character of the
official and unofficial "mentalites" during the last weeks of
peace. Published on the seventieth anniversary of the 1918
Armistice, this book will appeal to anyone interested in how wars
begin.
