Revelatory, even revolutionary. . . . Clark has done a masterful job explaining the inexplicable., "Excellent. . . . Where Clark excels is in explaining how the pre-war diplomatic maneuvers resembled a giant exercise in game theory."-, Excellent. . . . The book is stylishly written as well as superb scholarship. No analysis of the origins of the First World War will henceforth be able to bypass this magisterial work., Superb. . . .

One of the great mysteries of history is how Europe's great powers could have stumbled into World War I. . . . This is the single best book I have read on this important topic., 'A meticulously researched, superbly organized, and handsomely written account.' ( MHQ: The Quarterly Journal of Military History ), A thoroughly comprehensive and highly readable account. . . . The brilliance of Clark's far-reaching history is that we are able to discern how the past was genuinely prologue. . . .

Clark provides a vivid panorama of the jostling among Europe's policymakers. . . . The reader is rapt as 'watchful but unseeing' protagonists head for inconceivable horror., Clark's narrative sophistication, his philosophical awareness, and his almost preternatural command of his sources make The Sleepwalkers an exemplary instance of how to navigate this tricky terrain. The best book on the origins of the First World War that I know., One of 2013's finest nonfiction books. . . . Offers more up-to-date scholarship than you'll find in a classic like Barbara Tuchman's The Guns of August .
Synopsis
One of The New York Times Book Review's 10 Best Books of the Year Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize (History) The Sleepwalkers: How Europe Went to War in 1914 is historian Christopher Clark's riveting account of the explosive beginnings of World War I. Drawing on new scholarship, Clark offers a fresh look at World War I, focusing not on the battles and atrocities of the war itself, but on the complex events and relationships that led a group of well-meaning leaders into brutal conflict. Clark traces the paths to war in a minute-by-minute, action-packed narrative that cuts between the key decision centers in Vienna, Berlin, St. Petersburg, Paris, London, and Belgrade, and examines the decades of history that informed the events of 1914 and details the mutual misunderstandings and unintended signals that drove the crisis forward in a few short weeks. Meticulously researched and masterfully written, Christopher Clark's The Sleepwalkers is a dramatic and authoritative chronicle of Europe's descent into a war that tore the world apart., "A monumental new volume. . . .
