Alexander Watson is Professor of History at Goldsmiths, University of London, in the UK. I specialise in the history of the First World War, especially in Central Europe and on the Eastern Front. My books have won some prestigious prizes. 'Enduring the Great War' won the Fraenkel Prize. 'Ring of Steel' won the Wolfson History Prize, the Guggenheim Lehrman Prize in Military History, the British Army's Military Book of the Year Award and the U.S. Society for Military History's Distinguished Book Award. The book was named the 'Sunday Times History Book of the Year' for 2014. My latest book is 'The Fortress. The Great Siege of Przemysl'. This tells the exciting story of the First World War's longest siege, and traces how the brutal fighting and anti-Semitic ethnic cleansing which were to ravage Eastern Europe in the twentieth century began already in 1914. The book won the U.S. Society for Military History's Distinguished Book Award and was a 'Financial Times' Book of the Year for 2020.
