The French Army in the Argonne Observation and Battles
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle recalls three days on the Argonne front near Verdun and Champagne describing French soldiers at work in wooded trenches, discipline, and a fierce clash of wills with German forces. He portrays the French general Humbert and Athos, Cyrano-like officers, and the war’s moral weight on soldiers and nations.
