Reviews

This volume marks a major contribution to the body of scholarship on thissubject. -- StrategyWorld.com


[...] The book concludes with a nearly two hundred page compilation of excerpts from German deployment plans made between 1893 and 1914, with accompanying fold out maps. This alone justifies the [...] list price of the volume.</p>Serious students of pre First World War planning and the war's opening stages will find much that merits careful reflection in <i>The Schlieffen Plan</i>. -- <i>Michigan War Studies Review</i></p>


A superb piece of writing and scholarship. This work allows German historians to have their say on this uniquely German topic and thus provides a new and significant perspective on the campaign in the West in 1914 and the German plans for war. -- Robert B. Bruce, Marine Corps Command and Staff College


Winner of the Arthur Goodzeit Book Award given by the New York Military Affairs Symposium --
