Description

For the whole of WWI, the Aisne Department was the scene of ferocious fighting and terrible battles. The most famous, and saddest, of the all was the Chemin des Dames in 1917 which has remained engraved in the memory of the French. The author presents life on the Aisne front by means of over 400 photos, and texts, taken from letters and narratives, most of them unpublished or unknown until now.
