    German strategy and the path to Verdun
    • Almost 90 years since its conclusion, the battle of Verdun is still little understood. German Strategy and the Path to Verdun is a detailed examination of this seminal battle based on research conducted in archives long thought lost. Material returned to Germany from the former Soviet Union has allowed for a reinterpretation of Erich von Falkenhayn's overall strategy for the war and of the development of German operational and tactical concepts to fit this new strategy of attrition. By taking a long view of the development of German military ideas from the end of the Franco-German War in 1871, German Strategy and the Path to Verdun also gives much-needed context to Falkenhayn's ideas and the course of one of the greatest battles of attrition the world has ever known.

      Robert Foley's stories deal with the charm and vicissitudes of life in Southern Appalachia - the spirit of community, the enchantment with nature and music, and the innocence of childhood. They bring to life the struggles of making a living under harsh conditions, of hustling, and illustrate the violence arising from discrimination and misfortune. The guiding light of his Cherokee ancestors is omnipresent in Robert's deft and visceral writing, offering a path to redemption from the darkness of chaos.

    • The book features a sermon alongside its primary content, offering readers insight into its themes and messages. However, due to its age and rarity, many pages may present challenges in readability, as the original text has become blurred over time. This aspect adds a layer of historical significance and authenticity to the reading experience.
