Bücher von Peter M. Slowe

Peter Slowe graduated from Bristol University and took his doctorate at Nuffield College, Oxford. After a spell working in France (where he gained a first-hand knowledge of the battlefields), he worked for the EEC setting up co-operatives. His first book, on economic planning, was published in 1981, and he has written several specialist publications since. He was attracted to the study of the First World War by the combination of easy access to the sites of the battles and the number of good original accounts available. Richard Woods holds a history and geography degree and has taken an particular interest in the First World War since the age of fourteen, frequently visiting the Western Front battlefield sites. He is a firm revisionist, holding the view that the traditional 'lions led by donkeys' interpretation of the conduct of the war is misguided.
