The first Battle of the Marne door Robert B. Asprey

A short but useful account of the first decisive battle on the Western Front of WWI. It is strictly military in its coverage, and not well placed in context.

The Reign Of Napoleon Bonaparte door Robert Asprey

It's fine. Sometimes sympathetic portrayal of a steady, narrative type. Needed to read to catch up on Russian debacle to Waterloo time period due to reading Kissinger's book about Metternich.

The First Battle of the Marne door Robert B. Asprey

714. The First Battle of the Marne, by Robert B. Asprey (read 9 Dec 1962) This book is not bad but is not as enjoyable as Barbara Tuchman's The Guns of August.
