Book Description
Excerpt from Studies of the Great War: What Each Nation Has at Stake Not since 1861, when the Union was threatened, has our country witnessed days so dark. War vultures, with black wings, brood the earth as couriers of poverty, sorrow and death. During many months, multitudes have known but one colour - black, have had but one song - a funeral dirge. More men were killed on the field of battle during the first twenty weeks of war than there were people in the whole world in the time of the Flood. History holds the story of many wars, but history tells us that this is the first one that has involved all of the five continents of our earth. Already fifteen million men are in battle, or preparing for conflict. The results of the war are manifest through the crippling of international trade and banking, and the practical destruction of Twentieth Century commerce. The time has not yet come for entire moral appraisements, with distribution of praise and blame. The ideal is neutrality, and the postponement of judgment until all the facts are in.

Book Description
This unique volume offers a definitive new history of European economies at war from 1914 to 1918. It studies how European economies mobilised for war, how existing economic institutions stood up under the strain, how economic development influenced outcomes and how wartime experience influenced post-war economic growth. Leading international experts provide the first systematic comparison of economies at war between 1914 and 1918 based on the best available data for Britain, Germany, France, Russia, the USA, Italy, Turkey, Austria-Hungary and the Netherlands. The editors' overview draws some stark lessons about the role of economic development, the importance of markets and the damage done by nationalism and protectionism. A companion volume to the acclaimed The Economics of World War II, this is a major contribution to our understanding of total war.
