More about the book

Focusing on a largely overlooked First World War battlefront, this account reveals the intense and brutal battles of Isonzo along the Italy-Austro-Hungarian border. With over 1.75 million casualties, it challenges the notion that the Italian and Austrian armies were ineffective. Schindler argues that the Habsburg Empire's defeat stemmed from military and economic failures, rather than political or ethnic issues, aiming to restore the significance of these sacrifices in 20th century European history.
