The Netherlands and World War I: Espionage, Diplomacy and Survival
ISBN: 9789004122437 / Angielski / Twarda / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During World War I the Netherlands was situated squarely between two warring great powers, Britain and Germany, and on the edge of the war zone itself. Isolationism was impossible; strict neutrality was inadequate. The Netherlands nevertheless escaped the war, mainly because of its own actions. This book is the story of the people who managed this escape. The first part of the book examines the pre-war situation, espionage against Germany, and the mobilization of 1914. Succeeding chapters cover the military-diplomatic balancing act during the war, the attempted revolution of 1918, and the...

This volume presents original research on the military, social and cultural history of the First World War. Inspired by the reinvigoration of this subject area in the last decade, its chapters explore the stresses of waging a war, whose "totalizing logic" issued formidable challenges to communities, accounted for the pervasion of the conflict into the private sphere, and brought about specific intellectual responses.

Warfare and Belligerence: Perspectives in First World War Studies
ISBN: 9789004143524 / Angielski / Twarda / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The essays collected here suggest some of the ways in which an interdisciplinary perspective may contribute to our understanding of the Great War. Contributors examine the relationship between the character of the war and the nature of belligerent societies, and present original research on the comparative history of the First World War. In 1914-1918, the front lines did not only separate warring nations, but also cut across belligerent societies and ultimately determined the social responses to the conflict. Indeed, the 'totalizing logic' of the First World War entailed the blurring of...

The Art of Staying Neutral: The Netherlands in the First World War, 1914-1918
ISBN: 9789053568187 / Angielski / Miękka / 423 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An insightful account of the challenges of neutrality in an era of total war, "The Art of Staying Neutral" shows how the Netherlands remained peaceful throughout World War I. This sustained neutrality, Maartje Abbenhuis demonstrates, was the result of many factors, including masterly diplomacy, careful adherence to international laws and a decisive measure of good fortune. Neutrality, however, did not come without considerable costs to the nation's economy and security.
This book is a major contribution both to the study of neutrality and the domestic history of the Netherlands. An insightful account of the challenges of neutrality in an era of total war, "The Art of Staying Neutral" shows how the Netherlands remained peaceful...

The ridiculous and reckless conflicts chronicled in... When winners write history, they sometimes "forget" to include their own embarrassing misjudgments.
