The Audacious War
Publisher Description
This book written over War World I - before the USA's entry - when the echoes of howitzers were still thundering over the French countryside. Germany assumed America might join their side, France had 400 miles of fortification that were immediately abandoned, proving useless against gasoline-powered mobility. Author highlights the bad blood between Germany and France that existed since the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 and gives detailed accounts of the cost of war in treasury and men.
