8 Febrero 20151914-2014
The battle of the Marne, fought near Paris in September 1914, halted the German advance to capture France's capital in the early days of WW1.
9 Enero 2015A wasted opportunity
I finished this book with an exhausted sigh of relief.
18 Noviembre 2014Some Useful Insights, but a Confusing Read
Good first chapter on the start of World War I.
31 Julio 2014Detailed, balanced, compelling: a fine piece of history
As we come up on the centenary of the beginning of the Great War, here is a helpful and careful work of scholarship
on the first six weeks of the war in France.
8 Junio 2014A great research book about the Marne
The book begins examining the reasons to go to war,above all for Germany and the Absburg Empire, then analyzing the war plans of all the powers involved in this world war, including even a lot of "what if"s.
5 Marzo 2014Guns Of August Rewrite?
Although titled "The Marne" it dedicates over 1/2 of the book to the "Battle Of The Frontiers' which, while leading up to the "Battle Of The Marne" is somewhat misleading.
9 Enero 2014Solid, unbiased, but prosaic.
I got this book to learn more about the fateful visit of German General Staff Lieutenant Colonel Richard Hentsch to the Western front during the battle of the Marne, which ended in the retreat of the German army and stalemate on the Western Front.
21 Agosto 2011I think they should have stayed with the original 1905 plan!
Ahhh the old Schlieffen plan ...
19 Agosto 2011Numbing detail, poorly told
Pedantic version of events that is dedicated to forcefully promoting the author's thesis.
11 Abril 2011Splendid, lesson-filled military history
This will probably stand for some time as the definitive history of the Great War's opening campaign in the West.
