Reviews

Challenged everything I thought I knew about this war.
Iain Dale
-
Churchill and Eberholst put the world back into the First World War. They portray the astonishing scale and reach of a war that might have started in Europe but was a genuinely global catastrophe.
Dan Snow
-
By focussing on the immense impact the conflict had on common people – from colonial subjects to women and even children – Ring of Fire prompts a dramatic reassessment of how we should view and tell the history of this terrible war.
James Holland
-
An eye-opening alternative to the well worn stories of brave tommies marching off to bash the Boche.
Charlie Higson
-
Wears its evident scholarship lightly on its sleeves, probes deeply, casts its net wide, and amounts to the new gold standard.
Peter Caddick-Adams, author of, 1945: Victory in the West
-
Panoramic and revelatory ... More than half a centuryafter Barbara Tuchman's seminal The Guns of August, this intricately researched and highly readable perspective on the great war makes for a worthy successor.
Alex Larman, The Observer
