Verständlicher, sachkundiger und kompakter kann man sich über die Katastrophe von 1914 kaum informieren: Gerd Krumeich fasst in diesem Buch den Wissensstand zur Vorgeschichte und zum Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkriegs zusammen. Der Autor verfolgt die Krisenlage vor 1914, die Eskalation und das Scheitern diplomatischer Lösungsversuche und informiert über den aktuellen Forschungsstand zur immer wieder gestellten Kriegsschuldfrage. 50 Schlüsseldokumente aus nicht leicht zugänglichen Aktenpublikationen werden im Wortlaut abgedruckt und erläutert. So können auch Nicht-Spezialisten die Hauptstränge der Ereignisse, die Vorstellungen und Denkhorizonte der damals verantwortlichen Staatsmänner und Militärs nachvollziehen. Niemand von ihnen ahnte oder wollte 1914 den Krieg, wie er 1916 vor Verdun und an der Somme grausame Realität wurde. Insofern lehrt dieses Buch auch, welche unwägbaren Gefahren jeder als begrenzbar gedachte Krieg mit sich bringt.

Gerd Krumeich, Prof. Dr., war von 1997 bis 2010 Lehrstuhlinhaber für Neuere Geschichte an der Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf. Er ist einer der führenden Experten der Militärgeschichte des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts sowie der Mentalitätsgeschichte des Ersten Weltkriegs. Mitherausgeber der »Enzyklopädie Erster Weltkrieg« bei Schöningh.

"Dieses dramatische Ringen und teilweise hysterische Schwanken stellt Krumeich souverän, detailliert und abwägend dar. Da braucht man keine erfundenen Krimis zu lesen – das ist ein authentischer." (Peter Pappert)

Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 23.06.2014
"Krumeich weckt die Neugier des Lesers, wenn er fragt: 'Warum war der Papst so unglücklich?' oder 'Wer waren die Dicke Berta und der Lange Max?'" (Rainer Blasius)

"Will man Clarks Befund noch einmal mit den Untersuchungen eines der ausgewiesensten Kenner der Weltkriegsgeschichte abgleichen, dann ist Gerd Krumeichs aktueller Blick auf den Juli 1914 eine sinnvolle Ergänzung." (Thomas Speckmann)
