Drawing on yellowed newspaper reports of the war of 1870, Dehan sets a large cast of French, German and English characters against the campaign that united Germany and broke the Second Empire. Soldiers bivouac, armies march, and the shadow of Bismarck, the man of iron, falls across the private lives caught up in it.
An ambitious historical novel, completed as the shadow of another war with Germany fell in 1914. Download the free EPUB.
