- Based almost entirely on sources from regional and national archives in France, Germany, the UK, USA and Austria, the book offers an account of the main events and personalities of the era, presents a fresh understanding of the 1914-18 war as well as a definitive modern biography of the Edward Grey. One of the principal actors in the approach to the First World War, Britain's longest-ever serving Foreign Secretary (in a single span of office), Grey was one of the leading British politicians of the period. It also describes the three decades before 1914 through the prism of biography.
