1918: The Great War, as it was becoming known, had reached an inflection point. The course of the war and the future of European civilization now rested on one decision: Would Germany, having prevailed in the East against a Russia crumbling into revolution and chaos, now attempt to crush her British and French enemies in one last desperate offensive before the emergent American Army arrived in its overwhelming force? Or could a small band of patriotic Germans led by a General and a Crown Prince use their high positions to influence their unyielding leadership to simply declare victory and withdraw homeward, leaving their opponents to justify a continuing and increasingly senseless slaughter? Their conspiracy gathers in such figures as Winston Churchill, the Communist firebrand Rosa Luxemburg and the Irish rebel leader Michael Collins along with an enigmatic Princess, an impetuous English Lord and a beautiful Belgian war refugee. Their story careens from swordfighting in France to a secret mission to London to Bolshevik-inspired upheavals in Berlin. Who Desires Peace..., the first book in the Great War Won trilogy, chronicles the schemes and adventures of the conspirators laying the foundations for their peace offensive; the second installment, ...Should Prepare for War, veers from Russia and Ukraine to the West as those peace efforts falter; the final volume, A Power of Recognized Superiority, traces the resumption and resolution of the war as America's looming presence finally tips the balance.
