But, while keeping this in view, he involun tarily - as was inevitable from his position - con templated the task from his own standpoint as Chief of the General Staff, and arranged events in connection with a' gen?ral scheme which could only be known at head-quarters. Thus this work, which was undertaken in all simplicity of purpose, as a popular history, isfbpractically from beginning to end the expressiofi of a private opinion of the war from the field-marshal himself.

This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Franco-German War, 1870-71, Vol. 1: First Part: -History of the War to the Downfall of the Empire; From the Outbreak of Hostilities to the Battle of Gravelotte IN completing the translation of the first volume of the German Official Account of the Campaign of 1870 - 71, the translator would beg the indulgence of his readers for the many imperfections which are inherent in a work of this nature. Compiled, as the original has been, by officers of the German head-quarter staff, whose reputa tion with the pen is not less brilliant than that with the sword, and under the superintendence of Field Marshal Count v. Moltke himself, the account will ever remain a standard military cl. Esie of one of the most remarkable campaigns in the world's history. Although the translator feels that he has fallen far short of doing justice to the undertaking entrusted to him, he hopes that he has to some extent succeeded in his object, viz., that of giving a clear and accurate rendering of the German original, without any attempt at word-painting; with the addition of sufficient foot-notes to render the text intelligible without detracting from the originality of the work.

Book Synopsis German Armies 1870–71 (1) by : Michael Solka
Download or read book German Armies 1870–71 (1) written by Michael Solka and published by Osprey Publishing. This book was released on 2004-08-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The crushing victory by Prussia and her German allies in the Franco-Prussian War, 1870–71, destroyed one empire and created another. It finally unified the German states into an empire under Prussian leadership – an empire proclaimed in the very halls of captured Versailles. In 1870 Prussia's reformed mobilization system put enormous armies into the field with unprecedented efficiency. The confidence which the victory encouraged among German militarists, and the intolerable humiliation it inflicted upon France, ensured that an even more destructive war was soon inevitable. This, the first of two titles, lists and illustrates the units of Prussia and her North German Confederation, the powerhouse of a formidable military machine.

Download or read book Sedan 1870 written by Douglas Fermer and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2008-09-19 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A historian analyzes the Franco-Prussian War’s Battle of Sedan, from its causes and effects, to the characters involved. The Franco-Prussian War was a turning point in the history of nineteenth-century Europe, and the Battle of Sedan was the pivotal event in that war. For the Germans, their overwhelming victory symbolized the birth of their nation, forged in steel and tempered in the blood of the common enemy. For the French, it was a defeat more complete and humiliating than Waterloo. Author Douglas Fermer’s fresh study of this traumatic moment in European history reconsiders how the mutual fear and insecurity of two rival nations tempted their governments to seek a solution to domestic tensions by waging war against each other. His compelling narrative shows how war came about, and how the dramatic campaign of summer 1870 culminated in a momentous clash of arms at Sedan. He gives fascinating insights into the personalities and aims of the politicians and generals involved but also spotlights the experiences of ordinary soldiers and civilians. Praise for Sedan 1870 “Fermer is an eminently readable author and his books well worth the investment. Sedan 1870, is an excellent study in hubris and hunger, doctrine and professionalism and the underlying motivation that drives troops, regardless of the quality of their leadership, to astonishing levels of self-sacrifice.” —Chris Buckham, The Military Reviewer

Book Synopsis Three German Invasions of France by : Douglas Fermer
Download or read book Three German Invasions of France written by Douglas Fermer and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2013-11-20 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tension and rivalry between France and Germany shaped the history of Western Europe in the century from 1860. Three times that hostility led to war and the invasion of France - in 1870, 1914 and 1940. The outcomes of the battles that followed reset the balance of power across the continent. Yet the German invasions tend to be viewed as separate events, in isolation, rather than as connected episodes in the confrontation between the two nations. ??Douglas Fermer's fresh account of the military campaigns and the preparations for them treats them as part of a cycle of fear, suspicion, animosity and conflicting ambitions extending across several generations. In a clear, concise account of the decisive opening phase of each campaign, he describes the critical decision-making, the manoeuvres and clashes of arms in eastern France as German forces advanced westwards. ??As the 100th anniversary of the start of the Great War approaches, this is a fitting moment to reconsider these momentous events and how they fit into the broad sweep of European history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Franco-Prussian War broke out in 1870 when Bismarck engineered a war with the French Second Empire under Napoleon III. This was part of his wider political strategy of uniting Prussia with the southern German states, excluding Austria. The war was an overwhelming Prussian victory, and King Wilhelm I was proclaimed Emperor of the new united Germany. The Second Empire collapsed and Napoleon III became an exile in Britain. In the peace settlement with the French Third Republic in 1871 Germany gained the eastern French provinces of Alsace and Lorraine, areas that were to provide a bone of contention for years to come.
