He was gravely wounded in the wars decisive battle at Gravelotte, where he was among the first Europeans to face the horrors of breech-loading rifles, machine guns, and accurate artillery. Accompanied by an insightful translators introduction and a wealth of footnotes, this book is an invaluable link to the everyday realities of the Franco-Prussian War.
