July 1914 - Countdown To War

July 1914 – Countdown to War (2014) by Sean McMeekin – Icon Books
From Crappy Old Books – where history repeats itself, usually with yellowed pages.

Sean McMeekin’s July 1914 takes you inside the high-stakes diplomatic disaster that led the world sleepwalking into war. With a day-by-day account of the month that changed everything, McMeekin points fingers in places the usual textbooks don’t—Vienna, St. Petersburg, and Paris get just as much heat as Berlin. It’s a gripping, forensic unpacking of missed chances, secret deals, and spectacular arrogance.

This copy? Well, let’s just say it’s been through a few wars of its own. Dog-eared, thumbed-through, and possibly dropped in a trench coat pocket once or twice—but still holding together.

Crappy Old Books – Because crisp and clean is for revisionists.

someone has torn off a price sticker and then coated the cover in plastic to preserve the mess they created. The book is otherwise like new.
