This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1916 edition. Excerpt: ...statement. The movements upon the French side are, of course, better known. We must, as best we may, combine these with the observed, implied, or supposed movements upon the enemy's side, and so attempt a fairly consecutive description of the action. First, then, for the line of battle in the French center.

There were at his disposition, it is true, two reserve divisions, the 52nd and the 60th, not part of the active formation, and kept almost throughout behind the line. He had also a division of cavalry on the right which kept up the link between himself and the 4th Army east of him. But the fighting had to be done with the six divisions which I have mentioned alone. These six divisions were spread out, counting from left to right--that is, from west to east--as follows: --The 42nd Division stood on the extreme left, next to and within hail of the extreme right of the French 5th Army.
