August 1914. The Guns of August reads like a novel but it was history, firmly based on the evidence. As Tuchman herself always said, she would not do the He or she must have thought or felt. It is a long book, but I was gripped from her wonderful first sentence. So gorgeous was the spectacle on the May morning of 1910 when nine kings rode in the funeral of Edward VII of England that the crowd, waiting in hushed and black-clad awe, could not keep back gasps of admiration. She paints the procession, the rows of heirs apparent, queens, empresses and princes, the scarlet, blue, green and purple uniforms, the gold braid and magnificent orders, the plumes flying on helmets. The sun of the old world was setting in a dying blaze of splendour never to be seen again. Taken from the Guardian by M. MacMillan. l Macmillan Press. London 1980. Papermac. 500 pp. With maps and Photos. Good condition.
