Description: This book offers a rare and intimate glimpse into the inner workings of the German military during the First World War. Through a collection of key documents, many previously unpublished, the author sheds light on the decision-making processes of the Supreme Command, its complex relationship with the Imperial Chancellor, and its struggles with the challenges of waging a modern war. The book delves into the pre-war efforts to build up the German army, examining the development of critical military technologies, the mobilization strategies, and the logistical complexities of supplying a massive army. The author further reveals the German government's attempts to maintain secrecy from the Supreme Command and argues that a peaceful solution to the conflict was never truly sought. He also presents a powerful and insightful analysis of the failure of the attempts at mediation by neutral nations and the attempts to shift blame for the war. This book offers a compelling and thought-provoking look at the German perspective on the First World War, challenging conventional narratives and illuminating the internal dynamics of the German military during a time of unprecedented upheaval.
