Based on the popular podcast, "When Diplomacy Fails" podcast, Zachary Twamley examines the role diplomacy and international politics played in Britain's entry into the First World War.  Britain's obligation to Belgium has often been cited as the reason for the British entry into the war, but it was not as clear-cut as that.  This books provides a detailed account and overview of the events that lead Britain to war against Germany.

Zachary Twamley, the host of the popular, When Diplomacy Fails podcast explores the role "Honour" played in Britain's entry into World War I. The decision to enter the war in conjunction with France and Russia in 1914 was no a foregone conclusion. There were pro's and con's within the government to enter the war - and the German invasion of Belgium was not the final push to get Britain to declare war on Germany. Zach examines "Honor", as was passed down from Victorian to Edwardian England as its role in the government's final decision. Based on his award winning paper and his podcast, Zack explores the one of the factors that led to Britain's road to war.
