The Necessary War plot

100 years after the end of the First World War, Sir Max Hastings presents his view that this was a tragic but inevitable war, mainly because of the German drive to dominate Europe. Through conversations with the world's leading scholars and military historians about this period, Hastings explores the main reasons for the outbreak of the war and the need for Britain to intervene. In addition, Hastings discusses the Treaty of Versailles and the general atmosphere of disappointment and frustration from the economic and political slump of the 1920s and 1930s.
