Klaus Urner has discovered proof that Hitler wanted to "rub out" Switzerland. The planned occupation of the country was, however, postponed for a short time and in the end did not materialize. Switzerland was the only country in Western Europe that did not suffer military invasion in World War II. It made itself indispensable to both sides and survived in the eye of the hurricane that was Nazi aggression. "Let's Swallow Switzerland", including archival photographs, original color maps, and reprints of secret documents, sets new standards for the investigation of this important chapter of twentieth-century history.

Countless books have been written on the military history of World War II, however astonishingly little information has appeared about the one country that stared the Nazis down and refused to become an accomplice to the horrors of the Third Reich. This book provides an objective, year-by-year account of Switzerland's military role in World War II, including her defensive strategies, details of Nazi invasion plans, and Switzerland's moral, material and humanitarian links to the Allies. Swiss neutrality in World War II has been criticized in recent years, but the country was entirely surrounded by Axis powers and managed, as revealed here, to render considerable assistance to the Allies.

Prominent historian and former President of the Swiss Confederation Georges-Andr Chevallaz begins his study of Swiss neutrality during World War II with two essential questions: Why, in the face of German imperialism ”with its authoritarian, totalitarian, and racist ideology ”did Switzerland declare neutrality? Why did it not join the "camp of democracies," or the other European nations who resolved to hold firm against the Germans? Chevallaz's provocative and insightful book, presented here for the first time in English, attempts to answer these questions. Chevallaz further offers an even-handed reevaluation of the role of the principal actors in Swiss politics of the time, notably Marcel Pilet-Golaz, head of the Department of Foreign Affairs, and General Henri Guisan.

With the creation of the Franco-Russian Alliance and the failure of the Reinsurance Treaty in the late nineteenth century, Germany needed a strategy for fighting a two-front war. In response, Field Marshal Count Alfred von Schlieffen produced a study that represented the apex of modern military planning. His Memorandum for a War against France, which incorporated a mechanized cavalry as well as new technologies in weaponry, advocated that Germany concentrate its field army to the west and annihilate the French army within a few weeks. For generations, historians have considered Schlieffen's writings to be the foundation of Germany's military strategy in World War I and have hotly debated the reasons why the plan, as executed, failed. In this important volume, international scholars reassess Schlieffen's work for the first time in decades, offering new insights into the renowned general's impact not only on World War I but also on nearly a century of military historiography. The contributors draw on newly available source materials from European and Russian archives to demonstrate both the significance of the Schlieffen Plan and its deficiencies. They examine the operational planning of relevant European states and provide a broad, comparative historical context that other studies lack. Featuring fold-out maps and abstracts of the original German deployment plans as they evolved from 1893 to 1914, this rigorous reassessment vividly illustrates how failures in statecraft as well as military planning led to the tragedy of the First World War.

Il volume traccia un quadro degli eventi che portarono l’Italia ad entrare in guerra nel maggio 1915 contro l’Austria-Ungheria, avendo particolare riferimento le Marche. Descrive i primi sei mesi del 1915 che furono un semestre difficile ed agitato, e che segnarono profondamente il nostro Paese ed, in particolare, le Marche. Seguito del precedente dedicato al 1914, il volume, primo dei due in programma per il 1915, descrive la genesi di una scelta, frutto in gran parte delle imposizioni altrui e in parte dalle nostre decisioni, generate dalla dichiarazione di neutralità nell’agosto 1914, ove, in pratica, l’Italia non aveva più né alleati né tantomeno amici; descrive, poi, il perché di questa situazione difficile ed intricata, che fu risolta solo scegliendo fra le due opzioni rimaste: guadagnarsi nuovi Alleati, ovvero scendere a fianco dell’Intesa, o accettare quanto ci offrivano gli ex-Alleati, Austria-Ungheria e Germania in cambio della nostra neutralità. Era lo scontro tra interventisti e neutralisti, che videro le Marche in prima fila. Uno scontro che fu risolto senza tenere contro delle esigenze e delle condizioni militari. Il rovesciamento delle alleanze maturato nel 1914 imponeva più tempo per una adeguata preparazione alla guerra; un dato, questo, sottovaluto e che incise su una mobilitazione rilevatasi tardiva. Il Primo Ministro Antonio Salandra ed il Ministro degli Esteri, Sydney Sonnino, sono gli artefici primi di questa situazione che mise in difficoltà gravi il vertice militare. Il Regio Esercito e la Regia Marina entrarono in guerra non pronte, tanto che la prima grande offensiva terrestre fu lanciata il 23 giugno 1915 ad un mese dalla dichiarazione di guerra, mentre le coste italiane, da Venezia a Otranto sono e rimangono indifese per tutto il 1915 e gran parte dell’anno seguente. Segni, questi, che avvalorano ancor di più l’assunto proposto. Le Marche, ove gli interventisti erano la maggioranza, pagarono immediatamente questi errori; le coste marchigiane, con Ancona in testa, furono attaccate il primo giorno di guerra, imponendo un totale radicale cambio di vita e di comportamenti. La Guerra si era presentata subito ai Marchigiani con il suo vero volto, chiamando tutti alla realtà, smorzando in poche ore l’entusiasmo di quello che fu definito “il maggio radioso”, ma che radioso non fu.
