Every voter in a democracy should know about the causes of wars, so that their voting can be informed. This booklet contains two lectures. The first gives a fresh analysis of the causes of the First World War by analysing the decision-making of the various governments responsible and showing how they came to precipitate this dreadful conflict. The second lecture explains not only why Germany failed to won the war in the early stages but also why she eventually suffered heavy defeat. Due weight is given to the important battles of 1918, which are too often neglected in popular treatments of the War.
George Harris writes these lectures with an ambitious exam candidate in mind, who wants more than the basic text book but lacks the time to read a full length monograph. This makes them ideal for revision. They are also an ideal introduction for adults who gave up History at school but who now want to refresh their knowledge.
