Niall Ferguson's 'The Pity of War' examines the Great War from a myriad of unexpected angles. It is a readable book, yet it is also a scholarly work that challenges our preconceptions of why and how World War One was fought. Ferguson's chapter concerning the role which the media took in shaping the nature of the war is especially interesting. As well, his chapter dealing with the culture of the trenches is enlightening. I would recommend this book both for serious scholars of the Great War like myself, and also to anyone interested in the war and its role in shaping the bloody twentieth century.
