“It is to your glorious resistance that we owe our victory, which will start to-morrow.” Such were the words of General Joffre in an Order of the Day addressed to the Army of Verdun, at the end of June, 1916. All the world recognizes the truth of that remarkable prophecy. The Battle of Verdun is universally hailed as the turning point of the war.
“This will surely be one of the comparatively few war books which contemporaries will read and re-read and hand on to posterity.”—The Times.
