Gary Sheffield - King's College London and Sandhurst - has written a fascinating book not only for WW I buffs but also for all those who are interested in modern history. Many myths and misconceptions are clearly and sympathetically presented in a radical new interpretation - the traditional view of WW I is continually being reassessed - a broad sweep from Waterloo to Blitzkrieg by a leading authority in his field.
