The Price Of Glory: Verdun 1916 Is The Second Book Of Alistair Horne'S Trilogy, Which Includes The Fall Of Paris And To Lose A Battle And Tells The Story Of The Great Crises Of The Rivalry Between France And Germany. The Battle Of Verdun Lasted Ten Months. It Was A Battle In Which At Least 700,000 Men Fell, Along A Front Of Fifteen Miles. Its Aim Was Less To Defeat The Enemy Than Bleed Him To Death And A Battleground Whose Once Fertile Terrain Is Even Now A Haunted Wilderness. Alistair Horne'S Classic Work, Continuously In Print For Over Fifty Years, Is A Profoundly Moving, Sympathetic Study Of The Battle And The Men Who Fought There. It Shows That Verdun Is A Key To Understanding The First World War To The Minds Of Those Who Waged It, The Traditions That Bound Them And The World That Gave Them The Opportunity.
