The Long Fuse: An Interpretation of the Origins of World War I: Critical Periods of History, J.B. Lippincott Company, Philadelphia and New York. 1965 Second Printing.
"In this book, Lauraence Lafore considers the outbreak of the war of 1914 without concern for the question of guilt, but with a clearer emphasis on two facts than has hitherto usually been placed upon them: first, that when statesman and peoples undertook actions they knew might lead to war, they were not envisaging the catastrophe that the war became but rather a quick and limited ware: and secondly, that among the many conflicts that might have led to war, the one that did was the threat to the integrity of Austria-Hungary, posed by Serbia and Serb nationalism:".....a work of distinction, an important addition to the Critical Periods of History series. Good Condition.
