It was the decisive battle of World War I. German commander
Erich Ludendorff called it "the black day of the German army." Many
authors have stated that it was the beginning of the end of the
great conflict. And yet, until now, no book has been published on
the climactic battle at Amiens. Amiens was one of the first
"modern" battles, and certainly the first attempted by the Allies.
Employing the troops of five nations (including Canada) and
utilizing secrecy, deception, and combined operations, the Allies
won the first of a string of victories culminating in the Armistice
one hundred days later. Amiens: Dawn of Victory is the first book
to study the historic battle in minute detail. Using eyewitness
accounts from dozens of survivors, plus many accounts, both
published and unpublished, by the participants, the authors take us
into the trenches, the tanks, and the cockpits.
