A challenging revisionist history of WW1: "how the Germans won the battles and how the Americans saved the Allies".
Based on a decade of research in French and German archives, this book reveals what actually happened on the battlefield, as opposed to what French and British commanders and governments claimed.
John Mosier analyses campaigns routinely ignored, and shows why conventional accounts of major battles such as Verdun are incorrect. He explains how German weapons, tactics, training and leadership were consistently superior and why their losses were substantially less than those of the Allies. He also discusses the major military leaders of both sides: Joffre, Petain, von Moltke, Pershing and others.
