Verdun 1916

More about the book

1916 was a year of killing. The British remember the Somme, but earlier in the year the heart of the French army was ripped out by the Germans at Verdun. The garrison city in northeastern France was the focus of a massive German attack; the French fought back ferociously, leading to a battle that would permanently scar the French psyche. Using original French sources and eyewitness accounts from both sides, Malcolm Brown brings the horror of Verdun into vivid focus.
