I know it's hard to care about an utterly defunct empire, but the total lack of detail about Austria-Hungary in this book is unaccountable. Still, I admit the chapters on the pursuit of the Goeben and Battle of Tannenberg are some of the finest I've ever read. I know it's long enough, but it's a great pity Tuchman did not go all the way to December 1914.
