A fantastic book. One of the great war novels of all time, without a doubt. I'm a bit confused why this book does not have the visibility as the work of Remarque or Crane, so mention two authors considered to have authored military classics.
What strikes me is the similarities between the descriptions of combat in 1870 and those I have read about the Great War--the constant artillery fire, the horrible wounds.
