Paris 1919 - Want to know the underlying cause of 75% of the modern era's geopolitical turmoil? Read this book.

Pyrrhic Victory: French Strategy and Operations in the Great War - By far the best war related non-fiction book I have read. A masterpiece of the genre. Doughty manages a near seamless weaving of France's tactical, strategic, and political postures and responses during WWI. Guaranteed to greatly change your perspective on France and The Great War.
