Historian and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Barbara Tuchman has brought to life again the people and events that led up to World War I. With attention to fascinating detail, and an intense knowledge of her subject and its characters, Ms. Tuchman reveals, for the first time, just how the war started, why, and why it could have been stopped but wasn't. A classic historical survey of a time and a people we all need to know more about, The Guns of August will not be forgotten.
Barbara Wertheim Tuchman was an American self-trained historian and author and double Pulitzer Prize winner. She became best known for The Guns of August (1962), a history of the prelude and first month of World War I.
As an author, Tuchman focused on producing popular history. Her clear, dramatic storytelling covered topics as diverse as the 14th century and World War I, and sold millions of copies.
What a pleasant historical nonfiction read. Very heart touching.
评分塔奇曼女士文字的优点是非常生动,引人入胜。缺点是过于戏剧化,让你不知道哪里可能埋藏有戏说成份。读来不放心的一本书。
评分April 5, 2014
评分花了一个月读了105年前的那个八月,那些谋划与散漫,自负与懦弱,骄傲与恐惧,圆滑与固执,那些亲手编织了宏大的历史的人,在当时谁也不知道结局。只有回头用上帝视角看的时候,才更觉得个人的奋斗真的无关紧要。
评分十颗星。这本书又一次raise了我English reading的bar! 每天都沐浴在历史的回肠荡气中上下班...Hindenburg被任命到东线战场和Joffre最终说服英国人去支援马恩河的那两段读的我快原地炸裂, truly shivering for mankind...还想接着读后四年的故事but I guess that won’t be so dramatic or decisive.
《八月炮火》,巴巴拉•W•塔奇曼著,1981年7月出版,当时的书价1.60元,它在我的书柜里躺了大约30年。多年以前曾经读过几页,但开篇的文字没有提起我进一步阅读的兴趣,于是打入冷宫。最近,翻书柜,又把这本冷落了几十年的旧书翻出来。这次,我被吸引住了。我所有的阅读...
评分 评分 评分这本书非常牛逼,写的磅礴大气又很有趣,唯一的缺点可能就是翻译的不是太好,句子不是很符合中国人阅读的习惯。 这个作者还写过一本《the distant mirror》,可惜还没有被翻译过来。
