The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand is considered by many historians to be the single most important immediate cause of World War One.

What topics does this workbook cover?
The victim of the assassination is then looked at in more detail; covering Franz Ferdinand's relationship with his uncle, Emperor Franz Joseph, and his morganatic marriage to Sophie Chotek, the Duchess of Hohenberg, who was also murdered in the attack.
Focus is then directed towards the assassin, Gavrilo Princip, where his early background and education are considered, as well as his relationship with the Black Hand. Princip's trial and sentencing are also discussed, as are his death and legacy.
The two secret societies pulling the strings in the background are then examined in turn, identifying those key figures in the Black Hand and Young Bosnia who played a part in the assassination.
This is then followed by a look at the infamous Gavrilo Princip Sandwich, as well as some of the other myths surrounding the events that took place during and after the archduke's assassination.
