Actually providing the trigger for WW1 - an AH-Serbian conflict is just the n+1th Balkans war (3rd I think). I think the declaration of war by Germany starts WW1

Gentlemen,

Can anyone recommend some good. solid historical sources on Gavrilo Princips and the Young Bosnia/Black Hand movements?

I am particularly interested in how those organizations raised funding, and who their financiers were.

Appreciations.
