Meer over het boek

Angry, dazzling and humane, The French Art of War is the Goncourt-winning novel about the intervals of peace and the moments of unspeakable savagery in French wars spanning half the world and half a century. It is told through the eyes of a young man who, in return for painting lessons, is writing the life story of Victorien Salagnon, a veteran commander with the blood of others up to his elbows.
