Rese�a del editor

Excerpt from Foch Speaks

In this book the author has made a serious attempt to expound the moral lesson which he derived from eight years association with the Marshal, during which he shared with him the intimacy of daily life.

Thus this work is a portrait of Marshal Foch as seen and understood by his aide-de-camp.

The book was composed during that association, but quite independently of the Marshal. The latter knew what was being done, but death prevented him from taking cognisance of the final result. Further, he did not wish any passage of it to be published during his lifetime, to avoid the possible suggestion that it had been dictated.

This study of Marshal Foch is, therefore, a testimony, for which the author alone is responsible. It attempts to reveal the man in the leader of men, and to show how the application of a sound method by a strong character led to victory.

Throughout the book, Marshal Foch's own words are printed in italics.
