The Guns of August

Not sure if this author is expressing their opinion of the leaders of the various countries, her resources or both; I came away thankful I didn't have to be around people that think that much of themselves.

I thought the author did an admirable job of helping the reader keep up with the change of location as she moved down the timeline and most important to me, she answered the question I'd always had about why 1 assassination that didn't occur in one of the major countries, brought them all to war.
