Adam Zamoyski lias drawn on a vast pool of first-hand accounts in French, Russian, German, Polish and Italian, many never before translated into English, to paint a harrowing and vivid picture of the experiences of soldiers and civilians on both sides of the conflict. The result is that rare and elusive thing: a truly original historical masterpiece, a landmark book that will be read for decades to come.
