The Price of Glory: Verdun 1916; Revised Edition(ISBN=9780140170412) txt umd azw3 下载 fb2 pdf 在线 免费

　　The battle of Verdun lasted ten months. It was a battle in

which at least 700,000 men fell, along a front of fifteen miles.

Its aim was less to defeat the enemy than bleed him to death and a

battleground whose once fertile terrain is even now a haunted

wilderness. Alistair Horne's classic work, continuously in print

for over fifty years, is a profoundly moving, sympathetic study of

the battle and the men who fought there. It shows that Verdun is a

key to understanding the First World War to the minds of those who

waged it, the traditions that bound them and the world that gave

them the opportunity.
