The March to the Marne: The French Army 1871-1914
Douglas Porch
Dr Porch's book challenges many standard assumptions about the place of the army in French political life between 1871 and 1914. He examines the impact of the Dreyfus affair on the crucial tactical and armaments debates of the immediate pre-war years, leading to the army's near disastrous failure in the Great War.
