Thank you for the link to Clark’s long review of Anderson’s Disputing Disaster. Even on a quick perusal, I can tell this review is a must-read for anyone interested in World War I and its historiography, and broader questions of historical interpretation. (Whether it counts as a “philosophy book review” is a question I’ll leave to others, but I’m glad it made the cut here.)
