Description

Arcturus Military Classics discuss the strategies, tactics and weapons of the two World Wars, and vividly bring to life how these were employed on the battlefields of Europe, North Africa and Russia, through detailed narrative of the crucial battles. Although never losing sight of the bigger picture, the individual solider is never ignored, bringing a human dimension to the impersonal face of war. This volume focuses on Germany's new tactical attacks in 1918, in response to almost certain defeat by the Allies, and how they were forced to try to negotiate an armistice before their armies were utterly destroyed.
