Captain B. H, Liddell Hart is the foremost authority on World War I. In THE REAL WAR, the author has fused exhaustive research and creative brilliance with brevity and precision. Thus we have in one volume the war transformed into literature; an understandable, kaleidoscopic masterwork of military history.
Excerpts from reviews which attended the publication of the original hardcover edition in 1930:

`This is incomparably the best short history of the war yet written.`
The New Statesman

`A distinguished work . . . taken purely as a military history it is the most valuable one-volume work that has thus far appeared.`
Charles Seymour, Yale Review

`Captain Liddell Hart has synthesized the immensity of the war into one volume, presenting it tactically, critically, historically — a valuable work.`
J, B. Wharton, The Nation
