For the first time in a generation, here is a bold new account
來源:香港大書城megBookStore,http://www.megbook.com.hk of the Battle of the Marne, a cataclysmic encounter that prevented
a quick German victory in World War I and changed the course of two
wars and the world. With exclusive information based on newly
unearthed documents, Holger H. Herwig re-creates the dramatic
battle and reinterprets Germany’s aggressive “Schlieffen Plan” as a
carefully crafted design to avoid a protracted war against superior
coalitions. He paints a fresh portrait of the run-up to the Marne
and puts in dazzling relief the Battle of the Marne itself: the
French resolve to win, and the crucial lack of coordination between
Germany’s First and Second Armies. Herwig also provides stunning
cameos of all the important players, from Germany’s Chief of
General Staff Helmuth von Moltke to his rival, France’s Joseph
Joffre. Revelatory and riveting, this is the source on this
seminal event.
