Description
De Gaulle called it a 'fatal avenue' - that broad sweep of low-lying country stretching north-east of Paris. Over the centuries invading armies have swept back and forth over this bloody terrain and the names of battles fought here read like a dictionary of military history - from Agincourt Calais and Crécy to Verdun Vimy and Ypres.
Fatal Avenue is both a history and a guide - a unique study of a region that has witnessed more bitter military conflict than any other area of its size on earth.
