Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. A century ago General Joffre, as Chief of the French General Staff, led the armies that blocked the German invasion at the First Battle of the Marne. He saved Paris from occupation and France from probable defeat. His calm demeanour when faced with a disaster, his ruthless dismissal of incompetent subordinates, and his skilled redeployment of his forces contributed to a historic victory. At the time many saw him as the saviour of the nation, but what should we make of him now? His conduct of the war after the Marne - futile offensives that cost thousands of lives and gained no ground, followed by near defeat at Verdun - undermined his position and led to his dismissal. Although he remained immensely popular in France, his reputation has been under a cloud ever since, and he has been overshadowed by the French generals - Petain who commanded the French army and Foch the allied Forces - at the time of the final victory over Germany. Andre Bourachot, in this lucid and highly readable study of Joffre's career, focuses on his performance during the opening phase of the Great War. He offers a fresh and carefully considered view of the man and the soldier. AUTHOR: General Andre Bourachot is a leading expert on the history of the French army. He entered the military school at Saint-Cyr in 1958 and decided to specialize in engineering. During his long career he served in various roles - as a staff officer, instructor and commander. He left the French army in 1998 as Engineer in Chief. He is a former student of the Centre for Advanced Military Studies and of the Institute for Advanced National Defence Studies in Paris, and he has an engineering degree from the Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussees. He is married and is the father of two children. In addition to Joffre, he has written a two-volume history of the French army, De Sedan a Sedan, 1870-1918 and De Sedan a Sedan, 1918-1940. This is an acclaimed study of Joffre as military commander. It gives new insights into one of the leading figures of the Great War.

A partir de cette époque, elle va essaimer non seulement au sein de la société civile d'Ancien Régime mais aussi dans l'armée et la marine françaises. Le Premier Empire connaîtra ce que l'historiographie appelle " la maçonnerie en armes ", période faste dans la relation armée-franc-maçonnerie. Au contraire, l'avènement de la IIIe République, radicale et maçonnique, qui, sur fond de lutte anticléricale, voudra également républicaniser l'armée, amènera des conflits persistants avec l'institution : Affaire Dreyfus, affaire des Fiches, expulsion des congrégations. L'entre-deux guerres, terminé par la défaite de 1940, sera tout aussi conflictuel avec en points d'orgue l'épuration du régime de Vichy, puis celle du Gouvernement Provisoire de la République française. L'ouvrage s'achève sur la période contemporaine terminant ainsi l'histoire complexe depuis un peu plus de deux cents ans des relations entre les armées et la franc-maçonnerie sur fond de République."" ********************* ref GRD1-13bs réf 203.

Le 31 mars 1814, les Coalisés entrent dans la ville par la porte Saint-Martin. Après l'intermède des Cent-Jours, l'épopée impériale s'achèvera définitivement à Waterloo le 18 juin 1815 et les Alliés entreront à nouveau dans Paris le 6 du mois suivant. Depuis cette époque, presque jusqu'à nos jours, tous les pouvoirs : la Monarchie restaurée, le Second Empire et la IIIe République voudront mettre Paris à l'abri de toute nouvelle insulte ". À partir de 1840, Paris s'entourera de fortifications qui connaîtront le blocus de 1870 et la Commune. Réparées et complétées par les ouvrages Séré de Rivières, elles seront à la base du plan de défense de Paris mis en oeuvre par les généraux Michel et Gallieni à partir d'août 1914. Ce camp retranché sera intimement associé à la bataille de la Marne qui verra le reflux de l'armée allemande début septembre. Cette étude a pour ambition de relater l'histoire du Camp Retranché de Paris et de montrer comment pendant deux siècles, on a essayé, pas toujours avec succès, pas toujours à bon escient, de protéger Paris de l'invasion, en oubliant parfois que vouloir sauvegarder Paris n'était pas toujours sauvegarder la France.
