In 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his wife, Sophie, were shot to death in Sarajevo
A comprehensive & detailed collection of monographs, essays, as well as book reviews related to the subject,  edited by Günter Bischof, Ferdinand Karlhofer. "For the past 100 years some of the greatest historians and political scientists of the twentieth century have picked apart, analysed and reinterpreted this sequence of events taking place within a single month in July/early August 1914, again and again, from the classic works of Luigi Albertini, Fritz Fischer and Barbara Tuchman, and Jack Synder onwards to Christopher Clark and Margaret Macmillan most recently."
