Alliance at Armageddon: Franco-British Military Cooperation, 1914-1918 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781249363132)

The manner in which the Allied military forces of the First World War were coordinated has had an enormous influence upon subsequent alliance doctrines. The necessity for cooperative military efforts, the detailed coordination of all national resources and the interaction of military decisions with the entire fabric of society were lessons painfully learned during the first total war. Yet, while these lessons are generally accepted, their actual application during the First World War has been distorted by the self-serving participants and observers who were outraged at the destruction and misery which accompanied the war. The exact methods by which the Entente Powers controlled and coordinated their military might are examined herein.
