But for much of the rest of Europe this was a day with no meaning, as a continuing, nightmarish series of conflicts engulfed country after country. In this highly original, gripping book Robert Gerwarth asks us to think again about the true legacy of the First World War.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e'Lucid, incisive and packed with fascinating details' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eFinancial Times\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, Books of the Year\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e'Important and timely ... obliges us to reconsider a period and a battlefront that has too often been neglected' Margaret MacMillan, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe New York Times Review of Books\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e'This narrative of continent-wide chaos performs a valuable service by chronicling the postwar turmoil of Europe ... helps us understand why few wars reach tidy conclusions' Max Hastings, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eSunday Times\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Reminds us, in vivid and often shocking detail, that only some countries saw killing end on the 11th day of the 11th month ... leaves a sense of foreboding for our own time' Robert Tombs, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Times\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Lovers BD","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":55891522257187,"sku":null,"price":480.0,"currency_code":"BDT","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":55891522289955,"sku":null,"price":610.0,"currency_code":"BDT","in_stock":true},{"title":"eBook","offer_id":55891522322723,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"BDT","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/5872\/2083\/files\/1000256237.jpg?v=1793364762","url":"https:\/\/www.bookloversbd.shop\/products\/the-vanquished-why-the-first-world-war-failed-to-end-by-robert-gerwarth","provider":"Book Lovers BD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
