Caesar: Life of a Colossus by Adrian Goldsworthy

hey Ignotu, how do you like [Guns of August]? I am just now getting to the outbreak part early in the book but Tuchman's writing is really making it an interesting read. So far my two favorite figures are Henry Wilson and the Grand Duke Nicholas.
One of my professors just recommended a few more books on WWI so i'm thinking about adding them in sometime after I read Keegan's overview.
