  • Summary

    The partial recovery of the Austro-Hungarian Army in allied offensives is chronicled, as is the portrayal of the Germans as the monarchy’s savior both in the opening battles, as well as throughout the remainder of the war. Also discussed in detail are the bloody travails of failed Habsburg attempts to relieve the besieged Fortress Przemyśl. The significance of the fortress in Habsburg decision-making through 1914 is also explained, including the resultant suffering in the futile wintertime sorties launched to break out to the field armies. The Battle of Limaova-Lapanov, the first Habsburg victory on the Eastern front, is chronicled.
