Reviews
'It has to be good news that Prost's exemplary study can now be appreciated by a new generation of monoglot readers.' History "Prost's conclusions are persuasively argued, and historians of the verteran experience elsewhere would do well to take his book as a yardstick against which to measure their own work." Canadian Military History
