The Darkest Days: The Truth Behind Britain´s Rush to War, 1914

Many recently published histories of Britain´s Great War embrace the war as a good war—irresistible, righteous, and popular. It has become almost heretical to offer criticism of Britain´s intervention. This book presents a new critical examination of the government´s choice for war, and weaves into the story an account of those ´Radicals´ and other activists who urged a neutral diplomacy in 1914.
