About This Item
Constable, London, 1962. 24.0 x 16.0cms, 500pp, very good hardback (no dustwrapper) Tuchman goes from the tensions that culminate in the outbreak of the war to the first crucial battles that led to the stalemate of the western front and the inconclusive struggle in the east. She once said in a lecture, 'the writer should hold the reader�s attention. I want the reader to turn the page and keep on turning until the end'.
