Ferdinand Foch ended the First World War as Marshal of France and supreme commander of the Allied armies on the Western Front. Foch in Command is a pioneering study of his contribution to the Allied victory. Elizabeth Greenhalgh uses contemporary notebooks, letters and documents from previously under-studied archives to chart how the artillery officer, who had never commanded troops in battle when the war began, learned to fight the enemy, to cope with difficult colleagues and allies, and to manoeuvre through the political minefield of civil-military relations. She offers valuable insights into neglected questions: the contribution of unified command to the Allied victory; the role of a commander's general staff; and the mechanisms of command at corps and army level. She demonstrates how an energetic Foch developed war-winning strategies for a modern industrial war and how political realities contributed to his losing the peace.

Excerpt from General Foch: An Appreciation As these words are written, early in May, 1918, all eyes in the Western World are fixed on Ferdinand Foch. All eyes are fixed on the generalissimo of the decimated and decimating host fighting to withstand the renewed, and as yet the most dangerous, thrust of the Teutons. The least error, the least faltering, and neither judgment nor courage may possibly ever avail again. The eye, the brain, the heart of a single man must pierce and must master this crisis. And Foch is that man, by the acclamation of the French Army. More than that. Foch is the typical French soldier.

A. H. Atteridge penned many books on the subject of warfare, concentrating mainly on the Napoleonic period and the German army in the run up to the First World War. War Correspondent of the Daily Chronicle in the Sudan campaign of 1896, he was also special correspondent at manoeuvres of various foreign armies, and was an officer in the London Irish Rifles from 1893 to 1905. Some of the important military works written by him included Towards Khartoum, Wars of the Nineties, Napoleon's Brothers, Joachim Murat, and Marshal Foch. An acknowledged expert, his writing style is fluid and pacy without losing any of his authoritative knowledge. In this volume, the author focusses on the celebrated Marshal Ferdinand Foch: Atteridge documents Foch’s rise from military theorist of high repute before the First World War to the pinnacle of command as the general in chief of the entire war effort. Not a dry analysis of dates and figures, the entire methodology of Foch’s theory of warfare is discussed; from the foundations from Foch’s time at the Ecole de Guerre to the application of them against the invading forces of Germany. Still an excellent biography of the leader of the Allied Generallisimo. Author- Andrew Hilliard Atteridge (1844–1941) Text taken, whole and complete, from the edition published in New York, Dodd, Mead and company, 1919. Illustrations — 8 maps. Original Page Count – 286 pages.

The memoirs of Marshal Foch are important to the overall study of the Great War. Written during the last years of his life, they are personal memoirs that detail his actions, his movements, his orders and his thoughts, and his interpretation of events, some that modern historians might not altogether agree with.

Excerpt from General Foch at the Marne: An Account of the Fighting in and Near the Marshes of Saint-Gond M. Le Goffic's book entitled Les Marais de Saint-Gond deals with the six days' fighting which immediately succeeded the arrest of the French retreat, when the French soldiers were at last allowed to turn round and fight the all-conquering Germans, before whom, for strategic as well as for more obvious reasons, they had been forced to retreat during many bitter days and nights. Heavy sacrifices had been demanded of these men; "that even when victorious they should retreat, that they should hold partial successes as nothing, that they should possess their souls in patience... They had been told that they were making a strategic retreat. They believed it at first, but the more the retreat was prolonged, the more suspicion crept in... and in these last days their hearts had been sick within them at the thought of the great tracts of their own country they had been forced to cede to the enemy" - and that without striking a blow in their defence. An outstanding feature of the Battle of the Marne was General Foch's masterly handling of the Ninth Army. Ferdinand Foch was born at Metz in 1852, and was therefore only a young student at the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian war. He was educated in Paris at the Ecole Polytechnique - the Woolwich of France - and according to the law of the French Army, had to serve as a private before he could pass the examination qualifying for a commission.
