About this product

Product Information

A gripping work of history in the tradition of Christopher Clark's The Sleepwalkers In this highly original and gripping book Robert Gerwarth asks us to think again about the true legacy of the First World War. In large part it was not the fighting on the Western front which proved so ruinous to Europe's future, but the devastating aftermath, as countries on both sides of the original conflict were wrecked by revolution, pogroms, mass expulsions and further major military clashes. Everywhere there were vengeful people, their lives racked by a murderous sense of injustice, and looking for the opportunity to revenge themselves on enemies real and imaginary. Only a decade later, the rise of the Third Reich and other totalitarian states provided them with the opportunity they had been looking for.

If you want to know why the world is so full of unresolved issues then read this. The Wars end was a missed opportunity. The Victors, perhaps not surprisingly, put their own national interests first and left ticking time bombs for future generations to face the consequences of.
