{"product_id":"the-kaisers-warlords-ronald-pawly-9781841765587","title":"The Kaiser's Warlords: German Commanders of World War I","description":"Osprey's study of the German commanders of World War I (1914-1918). The turn of the 20th century saw Imperial Germany as essentially a militarist state, whose growing industrial resources and wealth were harnessed to the task of increasing German military power, at a time of aggressive expansionist diplomacy in competition with Britain and France. After her victories over Austria in the 1860s and France in 1870, Germany's General Staff enjoyed tremendous professional prestige throughout Europe, and was the model for all aspects of command and control. The German army was essentially that of Prussia, Bavaria and Saxony with smaller contingents from the lesser states. Its generals were the men who planned, initiated, and to a large extent controlled the course of World War I.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ronald Pawly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1841765589\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781841765587\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Osprey Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/21\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 7.78w x 0.23d","brand":"Ronald Pawly","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43938908569855,"sku":"9781841765587","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b699485f-1543-400f-af6e-9bd22414db60.jpg?v=1681438385","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-kaisers-warlords-ronald-pawly-9781841765587","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
