This book examines the outbreak of World War I through the lens of a hypothetical Supreme Court of Civilization where the major powers must present their justifications for their actions. The author analyzes diplomatic exchanges between major European powers and finds that Germany and its ally Austria suppressed critical communications preceding the war and argues that Germany could have prevented the invasion of Belgium by its ally and the escalation of hostilities had it been sincere about maintaining peace. The author concludes that the war was avoidable and that the belligerent nations share responsibility for the devastation that followed.
