Description
Excerpt from When the Tide Turned: The American Attack at Chateau Thierry and Belleau Wood in the First Week of June, 1918
The nation was immensely strong only as long as that obsession remained unshaken. With its destruction by a series Of defeats which were incapable of being explained as strategic retreats, their morale crumbled and finally collapsed, because it was not sustained, as that Of the Allies was sustained in the darkest days of the war by the faith that they were fighting for all that men hold most sacred.
TO those who were acquainted with German mentality and psychology, it had been manifest all along that when the end foreordained did come, it would come with catastrophic suddenness.
