  1. Vishal Soni –

    Informative but rather dry. While the historical details are there, it lacks a certain narrative drive. Still, a valuable resource for understanding WWI’s origins.

  2. Nishi Maurya –

    Offers a comprehensive view. I did get lost a few times with the amount of information. Helpful to look at other sources as well

  3. Shashank Mishra –

    It provides a detailed account. Some parts were boring but overall a good book to read. I would recommend.

  4. Saurav Baburao Maske –

    Gives great insight into this time period, I was not aware how close Europe was to disaster. It did drag on a little long though.

  5. Ankit Singh –

    Important history, but the writing style is quite academic. I found myself struggling to stay engaged. Still, I learned a lot.

  6. Abhinav Kumar Karadwal –

    A compelling exploration of the pre-war era. The authors paint a vivid picture of the political landscape and the missteps that led to war.

  7. Suyash Pratap Rana –

    While informative, the book can be a bit dense and overwhelming at times. It requires patience to fully appreciate the depth of analysis.

  8. Mudit Narayan Dubey –

    Eye-opening! I never understood the intricate web of alliances and miscalculations that led to the war. Highly recommended for history buffs.

    Briggs and Vipont masterfully expose the underlying political tensions. Eye-opening and thought-provoking, it’s a must-read for history enthusiasts.

  10. Saif Akhlaq –

    A bit overwhelming with facts and names. I wish there were more maps and visuals. The ‘sleepwalking’ analogy is apt though.

  11. Ayush Patel –

    Brilliant analysis of the pre-war atmosphere. The authors clearly show how easily Europe stumbled into disaster. A must-read!

  12. Charu –

    This book is incredible! It paints a vivid picture of the political landscape before WWI. I couldn’t put it down.

  13. Puneet Kajal –

    The level of detail is impressive, but the book could benefit from more engaging storytelling. It’s a valuable resource for serious scholars.

  14. Himanshu Shekhar –

    A sobering read. Briggs and Vipont did a great job explaining the complexities leading to WWI. It can be dense at times, but worth the effort.

  15. Vijaykumar Navanath Dhakane –

    A masterpiece in historical writing. The authors unravel the complexities of pre-WWI Europe with precision and insight. A captivating read!
