The Sleepwalkers

Does anyone here know British historian Christopher Clark? And his book "The Sleepwalkers" about the eve of WWI? I read it mentioned in a report today, and read nothing but praise in reviews. Worth the hype? German and American Amazon readers give it five stars, British Amazonistas rate it 4 stars. I never cared much for WWI, it did not interest me, but this year I slowly felt some appetite growing to close that knowledge gap. I must admit that although they say the author is a famous expert for Prussian history, I cannot remember to ever have heard of him - if I did, I have forgotten it.
