Why did Italy break with the Triple Alliance and side with the Entente in 1915? In this urgent wartime study, Luigi Carnovale unpicks the tangled web of treaties, ambitions and betrayals behind one of the most controversial decisions of the Great War. Italy stood at a crossroads. Written at the time and steeped in the language and passions of 1914-1918, it is both a compelling world war 1 history book and a vivid world war 1 primary source on the debates that divided politicians, soldiers and citizens. Part polemic, part ww1 diplomatic history analysis, Carnovale traces italy foreign policy 1914, the conflicting obligations of the triple alliance and entente, and the moral and strategic reasons italy joined allies rather than its former partners. His clear, forceful argument illuminates world war 1 causes italy, european politics 1914 1918, and the birth of the italian front world war 1, making this volume indispensable for world war 1 researchers and for students of italian history interested in italy during the great war. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, this careful modern edition invites both curious general readers and serious collectors to rediscover a powerful contemporary voice from the heart of the Great War.
