Book Description
"Verdun..." Those two syllables that have already become historic ring out today like the brazen tones of a trumpet. Of the battle, of the victory of Verdun, here is a single episode: that of Fort Vaux, beleaguered for three months in March 1916 and lost for a brief space on June 7. The present work deals with the admirable defence of Fort Vaux from March 9 up to that dramatic moment. This defense gave the world an opportunity of gauging the stamina of those at the front and their powers of resistance. The novelist M. Henry Bordeaux was peculiarly entitled to write The Last Days of Fort Vaux. He followed the Battle of Verdun as a captain on the Staff and was mentioned in dispatches in the following terms: "An officer who under all circumstances has displayed the highest military qualities. He volunteered on March 9, 1916, to perform, in our first line, an exceptionally dangerous mission, and carried it out under a furious bombardment." Notoir Books is a publisher of books on topics of esoteric interests, eccentric lifes, overlooked history and distinctive memoirs. You can visit us at notoirbooks.com.

Book Description
Beginning with the novelist Edith Wharton, who toured the front in her Mercedes in 1915, this book describes the wartime experiences of American idealists (and a few rogues) on the Western Front and concludes with the doughboys' experiences under General Pershing. Americans were "over there" from the war's beginning in August 1914, and because America was neutral until April 1917, they saw the war from both the French and German lines. Since most of the Americans who served, regardless of which side they were on, were in Champagne and Lorraine, this sector is the focus. Excerpts from memoirs are supplemented by descriptions of personalities, places, battles and even equipment and weapons, thus placing these generally forgotten American adventurers into the context of their times. A special set of maps based upon German Army battle maps was drawn and rare photographs supplement the text.
