Along with millions of other Frenchmen, Louis Barthas, a thirty-five-year-old barrelmaker from a small wine-growing town, was conscripted to fight the Germans in the opening days of World War I. Corporal Barthas spent the next four years in near-ceaseless combat, wherever the French army fought its fiercest battles: Artois, Flanders, Champagne, Verdun, the Somme, the Argonne. Barthas` riveting wartime narrative, first published in France in 1978, presents the vivid, immediate experiences of a frontline soldier. This excellent new translation brings Barthas` wartime writings to English-language readers for the first time. His notebooks & letters represent the quintessential memoir of a ”poilu”, or ”hairy one”, as the untidy, unshaven French infantryman of the fighting trenches was familiarly known. Upon Barthas` return home in 1919, he painstakingly transcribed his day-to-day writings into nineteen notebooks, preserving not only his own story but also the larger story of the unnumbered soldiers who never returned. Recounting bloody battles & endless exhaustion, the deaths of comrades, the infuriating incompetence & tyranny of his own officers, Barthas also describes spontaneous acts of camaraderie between French poilus & their German foes in trenches just a few paces apart. An eloquent witness & keen observer, Barthas takes his readers directly into the heart of the Great War. ...
