Two famed University of Paris professors document their "brief" on the diplomatic and historic origins of World War I, published early on in the conflict. It serves as a fascinating rebuttal to the usual assumptions about the causes of the spread from the Balkans to a pan-European war, and the accepted litany of interlaced alliances and the murder of the Austrian heir to the throne, Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
New ebook version of this historic monograph features close proofreading of the original text, linked footnotes, active Contents, proper formatting, and corrections of misprints found in the original. It adds a 2012 Introduction by Steven Alan Childress, Ph.D., J.D., a senior law professor of law at Tulane University. Unlike other ebook versions previously available, at any price, the Quid Pro digital edition presents the original properly and as intended, and separates the text and footnotes rather than confusingly interlacing them as run-on text.
