Mowrer is particularly clear in regard to the state of Germany between World war I and World War II and his analysis following bears the essence of the German situation in the years preceding the ascent to power of the Nazis, at which point Hitler had had him required to leave Berlin as his first act after the disastrous Enabling Act of March 1933. Mowrer's analysis starts with an assertion that neither a foreigner nor a German himself in those days could understand the motives for any German actions but only what those motives might ...

When he took over from Joffre, Nivelle argued that a massive onslaught against the German lines would bring French victory in 48 hours. He genuinely believed the Germans were too bloodied from the quagmires of Verdun and the Somme to offer an effective, sustained defence, especially if it were preceded by a large-scale diversionary attack by the British. The French War Minister, Hubert Lyautey, and Chief of Staff General Henri-Philippe Pétain, along with British Commander-in-Chief, Sir Douglas Haig, were all strongly opposed to this plan. However the French Prime Minister, Aristide Briand, su ...
