"No one writes about World War I with more empathy and understanding than Stephen Harris...Harris brings this epochal event alive with breathtaking vividness and skill."--Thomas Fleming, author of The Illusion of Victory: America in World War I
"Author Stephen L. Harris puts you right in the middle of the action. He tells it like it was: good, bad, and ugly, from baby-faced machine-gunners and hard-bitten sergeants fighting for their lives to exhausted colonels and generals trying to sort it all out under fire. This is military history as its meant to be."--Daniel P. Bolger, Lt. Gen. U.S. Army. Ret., author of Why We Lost: A General's Inside Account of the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars
"Stephen Harris has written a thrilling account of a critical, but mostly forgotten, battle of the Great War, which includes an unforgettable portrait of a magnificent American warrior, Col. Ulysses McAlexander."--Michael Hanlon, First World War Editor and Publisher
