This book traces Austria's attempts in 1918-1922 to create and control a new army, and to do so under the limitations imposed by the Paris Peace Conference. The tragic tale that emerges is one in which optimism ironically feeds the currents of distrust and bitterness which finally cause the demise of the embryonic Austrian republic, and adds to our understanding of the failure of Europe as a whole to achieve a secure peace between the wars.
