Delbrück's modern military history

Meer over het boek

The period 1866-1920 saw the rise and ruin of imperial Germany. Hans Delbruck (1848-1929) reported on the events of those years from a privileged position as a professor of history at the University of Berlin and delegate to the Paris Peace Conference. This collection of assorted writings show Delbruck's talents as a historian and political commentator--and reveal the tension between his patriotism and his scholarship.
