This has become an indespensible tool in our understanding of this vital era. (Contemporary Review, Vol.277, No.1615.)

This important study is a mandatory acquisition for libraries with serious collections on the 20th century. (Choice)

will certainly become the definitive study of the relationship between armaments and the origins of the First World War . . . rich and complex work. (International History Review)

superb study . . . It provides a set of key understandings about the road to war in the age of 1914, or in 1997. (Military History)

It has a full scholarly apparatus, with footnotes conveniently at the foot of the page - today unusual, but very welcome. The Journal of the Victorian Military Society (June 1997)

Stevenson must be commended for a thorough and analytical exposition of the pre-war arms race but readers should beware of the deathly prose, which could induce a coma in less hardy citizens.
