The book offers a systematic analysis of German public opinion at the onset of the Great War, challenging the notion of widespread war enthusiasm. Through an examination of newspapers, politics, and propaganda, it reveals how this myth developed and was perpetuated after the war. Verhey's innovative approach provides fresh insights into the German experience during the conflict and highlights the influence of political myths on modern German political culture.
