"Germany's failure in the first year of World War I remains a frequent subject of analysis. This book examines the structural failures that frustrated the Germans in the war's initial campaign, the invasion of Belgium. Too much routine in planning, command and execution led to groupthink, inflexibility and an overconfident belief that nothing could go too terribly wrong"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

The book is detailed, organized and well researched. It offers maod to show progress. Use them.
The effort to enter France via Belgium in 1914 was marred by all manor of chaos, mistakes, and infighting. The same effort in 1939 was stunningly effective.
In turung this book into an exploratory war game, and playing the 1939 parralel after it I feel a real understanding can be gained.
Anyway, read this book. It deepens a real understanding of the war. And is very good. ( )
