520 _a"Joffre and His Army" by Charles Dawbarn is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on General Joseph Joffre and the French army during World War I, detailing the evolution of the French military and the bravery of its soldiers. It serves as a tribute to the "poilu," the common French soldier who emerged from civilian life to face the realities of war. The opening of the work establishes the book's purpose as a homage to the French forces and their experiences in World War I. It reflects on the transformation of society as civilians, particularly the peasantry and bourgeoisie, rejoined their country’s military ranks amidst the turmoil. The author emphasizes the adaptability and bravery of these soldiers, who confronted tremendous hardship and contributed selflessly to the war effort on the front lines. Dawbarn paints a vivid picture of the harsh realities of warfare while also exploring the spirit of camaraderie and national pride that united the soldiers and civilians alike.
