Looking for books on the pre-world war one period and system of alliances

by Fufumine1

Hi y'all,

I'm not totally sure if this post goes against the rules, but here goes.

I'm in need of some reference material detailing the pre-world war one system of alliances and the lead-up to the whole shebang. Anything from books to articles and anything in between would be helpful.

Thanks in advance!

Edit. As someone pointed out there are already books on the recommended reading list. I admit I completely missed them. So, that's my bad!

There's some recommendations on the wiki

(As a layman, I found Sleepwalkers on that list to be an interesting and very readable dive into the build up to WWI)
