Winston Churchill said, the course of history is always being altered by something or other. WWI, and the world order that followed, was perhaps completely different but for the dramatic discovery of this telegram. A remarkable story of intrigue, intelligence, diplomacy, personality and luck (or lack thereof).

芭芭拉·W. 塔奇曼(1912—1989),美國著名曆史作傢,憑藉《八月炮火》與《史迪威與美國的在華經曆》兩度獲得普利策非虛構作品奬。《齊默爾曼電報》是她的成名作之一,以短小的篇幅、精湛的文筆描繪瞭世界大戰背後的諜報事件與外交權謀。
In January 1917, the war in Europe was, at best, a tragic standoff. Britain knew that all was lost unless the United States joined the war, but President Wilson was unshakable in his neutrality. At just this moment, a crack team of British decoders in a quiet office known as Room 40 intercepted a document that would change history. The Zimmermann telegram was a top-secret message to the president of Mexico, inviting him to join Germany and Japan in an invasion of the United States. How Britain managed to inform the American government without revealing that the German codes had been broken makes for an incredible story of espionage and intrigue as only Barbara W. Tuchman could tell it.
Praise for The Zimmermann Telegram
“A true, lucid thriller . . . a tremendous tale of hushed and unhushed uproars in the linked fields of war and diplomacy . . . Tuchman makes the most of it with a creative writer’s sense of drama and a scholar’s obeisance to the evidence.”—The New York Times
“The tale has most of the ingredients of an Eric Ambler spy thriller.”—Saturday Review
