Amy, as promised, dropped the giftbomb on me and, as predicted, I was in fact left jumping up and down in a spastic fit of glee.
Found and subsequently purchased today at the university bookstore was a copy of Stoessinger’s Why Nations go to War, delivered to me tonight by m’love. To say I was thrilled would be a gross understatement. This is a text that I have been searching for for four years, having been rebuffed time and again by booksellers everywhere, being told it was either not available or out of print, and disappointed at finding only very early editions online.
Especially cool is the fact that the copyright date on this edition, the 9th, is 2005. As if she’s not amazing enough already, Amy has apparently travelled forward through time to obtain this book for me. Rock on! Thanks, love!
