Reviews

[John Geddes]

"Extremely popular work, and a very effective attack on the Wilsonian diplomacy which led us into the war. The most widely read of all Revisionist books dealing with the first world war."

[Seth J. Vogelman · Rating 4 out of 5]

A brilliant book chronicalling how the US was dragged into war by Wilson and his pro-English cabal. Though dated the writing is fresh as if it were written today.
