The Guns of August

“

The Guns of August by Barbara W. Tuchman is an outstanding historical narrative enlivened by prose with sparkling syntax and revelatory information. This book should be required reading for everyone but especially for those entering diplomatic service.

Too bad that I had to go to amazon.com to find out what this book is about.
