Based on recently discovered material in German archives, this bookfundamentally changes our understanding of German military planning before World War IOn the basis of newly discovered or long-neglected documents in German military archives, this book gives the first description of Schlieffens war plans in 1904 and 1905 and Moltkes plans from 1906 to 1914. It explodes unfounded myths concerning German war planning, gives the first appraisal of the actual military and political factors that influenced it, proves conclusively that there never was a "Schlieffen Plan," and reveals Moltkes strategy for a war against Russia from 1909 to 1912. Tracing the decline in the German military position and the recognition by 1913 that Germany would be forced to fight outnumbered on both the eastern and western fronts, it is an essential read for anyone with an interest in World War I.
