{"product_id":"the-sleepwalkers-christopher-clark","title":"The Sleepwalkers — Christopher Clark","description":"\u003cp\u003eClark's account of how Europe went to war in 1914 is the most significant reassessment of the July Crisis in a generation. Rejecting the standard German-guilt narrative established at Versailles and embedded in historical consciousness by Fritz Fischer, he distributes responsibility more widely — examining how decision-makers in Belgrade, Vienna, St Petersburg, Paris, and London each contributed to an outcome that none of them fully intended or understood. The title is precise: the leaders of 1914 did not march into war with their eyes open. They sleepwalked, each following a logic that made sense in isolation and was catastrophic in combination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"epoch-endorsement\"\u003eWinner of the \u003cstrong\u003eKörber Prize for European History\u003c\/strong\u003e.
