Publisher: Random House Publishing Group


In this remarkable and intimate account, author G. J. Meyer draws on exhaustive research to tell the story of how the Great War reduced Europe's mightiest empires to rubble, killed twenty million people, and cracked the foundations of the world we live in today. On a summer day in 1914, a nineteen-year-old Serbian nationalist gunned down Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo. While the world slumbered, great, creaking forces were shaken. In less than a month, like an avalanche, a combination of ambition, deceit, fear, jealousy, missed opportunities, and miscalculations sent Austro-Hungarian troops marching into Serbia, German troops streaming toward Paris, and a vast Russian army into war, with England as its ally. With crowds cheering their armies on, no one could guess at what lay ahead: four long years of slaughter, physical and moral exhaustion, and the near collapse of a civilization that until 1914 had dominated the globe.
