Synopsis

This book explores Germany's strategic failures during the First World War, specifically their initial offensive, the battle of Verdun, and the 1918 offensive. The author argues that Germany's decision to fight a two-front war led to its eventual defeat, and examines the German General Staff's strategic miscalculations. The book draws parallels between the German offensives and the strategies of Napoleon, highlighting the importance of strategic foresight and the dangers of violating strategic principles. It concludes with a discussion of the significance of unity of command and the role of General Foch in the Allied victory. This book offers valuable insights into the nature of military strategy and its impact on the course of history.
