Iron and Blood
A Military History of the German-Speaking Peoples since 1500
Contenu
Peter Wilson looks to 500 years of history to contest rigid assumptions about German militarism. Historically German-speaking states have had complex-that is, typical-politics surrounding militarization, strategy, and civilian control. The belief in German military genius arose only in 1871 and was soon dashed by the two world wars.
