Charles Martel

€10.90 €21.80
The victory over the Arabs at Poitiers in 732: this is about all that remains of Charles Martel in the collective memory. A mere skirmish, or a clash of civilisations that saved Europe from Islamisation? The significance of this famous battle has seen renewed interest in the current context and is the subject of vigorous debate. However, one would be...

L20200281
€27.96
The Line Infantry bore the brunt of the final years of the Empire, from the campaign in France to Waterloo, before radically changing its face in 1815, at the time of the Second Restoration.

The Great Blunders of the Second World War

L20200277
€18.96
The Second World War lasted nearly six years, as long as they were terrible. A duration explained by the formidable means that the belligerents deployed on land, at sea and in the skies — making it futile to hope to defeat the enemy in a single campaign — but also, and in large part, by the mistakes committed. Had Hitler not persisted in winning the...

French Vampire and Mistral - Volume 2

A use had...

Gallipoli, the Dardanelles — these names, almost forgotten from our history books, nevertheless mark one of the bloodiest battles in which the French Army took part during the First World War. This military campaign, contested from its very conception by the political world and decried by the general staffs, had been conceived by a single man: Winston...
