Let us begin with a question: why should you read a book by an author long since dead about a war fought more than half a century ago?
The answer is not simple. I could say that Alan Moorehead was a fine writer and you will be able to see in this first-hand account of the Allied victory over Germany a popular historian warming his skills for a long list of distinguished works that were to follow: among them, Gallipoli, The Russian Revolution, the White Nile, the Blue Nile, and the Fatal Impact.
