A few of you have known that I’ve been on the trail of the source of the so-called Three World Wars letter of August 15, 1871. It took me a while, but I’ve finally cracked the case.

I take the reader through the process of discovery, provide a complete translation of the original source, and end with a critical evaluation.

There probably have been French historians out there who’ve known the truth of the matter, but as far as the English speaking world, it is a first.
