Nearly 100 years ago, on October 4, 1918, on a muddy, poison
gas-soaked hillside in France, the U.S. 26th Infantry Regiment
jumped-off amidst a hail of shell fire and machine-gun fire to
begin the final push to end World War I. For the next 39 days, with
little respite, the regiment fought desperately against a
determined, well-armed foe. This is the story of a single regiment
in a successful, highly acclaimed "Regular Army" division, during
the greatest American battle to date. This is not a dry recitation
of facts, but an in-depth examination of a single regiment that
allows the reader to appreciate the intricacies of small-unit
action and the problems associated with leading platoons,
companies, and battalions in battle during the Great War, while at
the same time depicting the human drama associated with the
terrible carnage
