This is a study of the war from the perspectives of the instigators, Germany and Austria-Hungary. It is not only about the leaders but also the peoples of the two empires. The war shattered their societies, destroyed their states. and bequeathed to East/Central Europe a poisonous legacy of unredeemed sacrifice, suffering, race hatred, and violence.
