Full title: Neath Verdun: August-October 1914  by Maurice Genevoix with a preface by Ernest Lavisse. Published in New York by Frederick A. Stokes Company in 1916. 328pp. First English Edition.

Translated by H. Grahame Richards.

This powerful account of World War I draws from the early months of the conflict, with a particular focus on the Verdun region.

Genevoix follows a group of soldiers as they face the chaos, fear, and exhaustion of war, beginning with the frantic preparations for deployment. The book captures their unease, small moments of humor, and the bonds that form in the face of mounting horror. Along the way, the grim reality of battle sets in—from the physical hardship of the journey to the heartbreaking sight of fallen comrades.

With sharp detail and deep empathy, Genevoix gives voice to the men on the front lines.
