Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Final War of a Great Empire "The official history of the Habsburg empire in the First World War ought to enjoy a better reputation than it does." - Sir Hew Strachan In August 1914, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, in response to the assassination of their heir to the throne, declared war against Serbia. Their army was multi-national and multi-lingual. Backed by Germany and opposed by an alliance between Russia, France, and Great Britain, the conflict would plunge the entire world into five years of brutal warfare. Started just after the Great War ended and completed only one year before the start of the Second World War, this is a comprehensive history of the final conflict of an empire that only half a century prior had been among the most powerful in Europe. With Russia never completing an official history of the Great War, and Italy, Romania, and Serbia's official histories unavailable in English, this is an invaluable and essential resource for any student of the Eastern and Italian Fronts of the First World War. This volume contains full colour facsimiles of all 40 leaflets and 36 sketches accompanying Volume 2, covering the ongoing campaigns in Eastern Europe and the war expanding to the Italian front.

Excerpt: ...visit was on everybody's lips in those days. He tried to investigate, but all of a sudden the whole gang of young men cleared their quarters. Thereupon he decided to call at the Austro-Hungarian Consulate General, but was arrested on his way to the consular office by a Servian gendarme who escorted him to the police. Here he was questioned about the purpose of his visit to the consulate. Then he was put into various jails on a trumped up charge that he was a spy. In the jail he was beaten repeatedly with sandbags, and once he nearly fell victim to an assault of another inmate of the jail. According to the witnesses' statement this murderous assault must have been arranged by the police, as a police officer was quietly standing by when the assault took place. Eventually one day he was taken out of jail and brought before the chief of police. Both this latter and ihe assistant chief were present. They handed him triumphantly a clipping from a paper referring to the murder of the Crown Prince. "You tried to prevent this" so he testified they said to Mm, "but we are cleverer than you are. Nou? Austria-Hungary's turn comes next. We will destroy it." Witness was told that he would have to leave Belgrade at once. Before leaving, however, he icas asked to sign a paper that all his effects had been handed over to him in best order. Milanic refused to sign because both his money and sundry valuables had been taken from him during his confinement. In spite of his protestations he was escorted over the frontier to Belgrade, and was told by the police that Count Berchtold would undoubtedly come and call for his lost effects. Witness was shown the photos of the murderers, and he was asked whether he could identify them as some of...

Download or read book Germany and the Axis Powers from Coalition to Collapse written by R. L. DiNardo and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It seemed that whenever Mussolini acted on his own, it was bad news for Hitler. Indeed, the Fuhrer's relations with his Axis partners were fraught with an almost total lack of coordination. Compared to the Allies, the coalition was hardly an alliance at all. Focusing on Germany's military relations with Italy, Romania, Hungary, and Finland, Richard DiNardo unearths a wealth of information that reveals how the Axis coalition largely undermined Hitler's objectives from the Eastern Front to the Balkans, Mediterranean, and North Africa. DiNardo argues that the Axis military alliance was doomed from the beginning by a lack of common war aims, the absence of a unified command structure, and each nation's fundamental mistrust of the others. Germany was disinclined to make the kinds of compromises that successful wartime partnerships demanded and, because Hitler insisted on separate pacts with each nation, Italy and Finland often found themselves conducting counterproductive parallel wars on their own. DiNardo's detailed assessments of ground, naval, and air operations reveal precisely why the Axis allies were so dysfunctional as a collective force, sometimes for seemingly mundane but vital reasons-a shortage of interpreters, for example. His analysis covers coalition warfare at every level, demonstrating that some military services were better at working with their allies than others, while also pointing to rare successes, such as Rommel's effective coordination with Italian forces in North Africa. In the end, while some individual Axis units fought with distinction—if not on a par with the vaunted Wehrmacht—and helped Germany achieve some of its military aims, the coalition's overall military performance was riddled with disappointments. Breaking new ground, DiNardo's work enlarges our understanding of Germany's defeat while at the same time offering a timely reminder of the challenges presented by coalition warfare.
Download or read book The Naval Flank of the Western Front written by Mark Karau and published by Seaforth Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Belgium was once described as the 'dagger held at the throat of England', a collection of provinces that had long been a critical factor in British foreign policy, and the traditional concern was that Belgium, and especially the Flanders coast, would fall into the hands of the strongest continental power. In 1914, Germany's occupation of Belgium brought about the spectre of enemy ships only seventy miles from the British coast, and the coast of Flanders became, effectively, the naval flank of the Western Front.?Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz was one of the few within the German navy who recognised the strategic potential of the three ports of Ostend, Zeebrugge and Brugges; that they were closer to England than the Helgoland Bight for access by small craft, and brought Germany to within a few hours sailing of the Thames estuary. This new book tells the story of the creation, purpose, operations and career of the MarineKorps Flandern. The Flanders harbours should have allowed the German navy to strike dangerous blows at vital British traffic in the Channel and southern North Sea but the MarineKorps was unable to fulfill the great expectations of von Tirpitz. The author not only explains how the German conducted operations, but also explains how the opportunites presented by the Flemish occupation were wasted away. A significant and insightful book on an important theatre of the War
