Announcing Armageddon: Declarations of War

By Dominic Lords

Wars don't begin with bullets, they begin with words.

Across centuries of conflict, declarations of war have set nations ablaze, redrawn borders, toppled empires, and changed the fate of millions. This book captures those dramatic, often chilling moments when leaders opened the gates to conflict by saying WE ARE AT WAR.

From America's first declaration of war in 1812 to Crimea, the World Wars, Vietnam, the Falklands, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Putin's war in Ukraine, each chapter takes you to the brink, reproducing and reflecting on the exact words of declarations, speeches, and resolutions that lit the fuse and hurled nations into conflict.

Unlike traditional military histories, Announcing Armageddon is about more than battles and tactics. It captures the spark that ignites the inferno, the words that launch wars, justify them, and reshape the world.
