Any one read it, comments.
Been bought it for Xmas, not started yet. Easter Holiday reading possibly.
I read it last month and found it an absorbing read, almost a page-turner in ease of reading and fascination of the narrative in spite of length and complexity of subject-matter. He puts Serbia at the heart of things, seeing it as what today would be called a 'rogue state', though he avoids glibly blaming any individual state since he argues for a very complicated set of interlinked alliances and attitudes (and failures of insight and imagination) being behind eventual outbreak of war. I thought it lived up to the praise from many critics, including Ian Kershaw and Niall Ferguson. I'll be re-reading it this summer.
