The French Foreign Legion : An Illustrated History Paperback / softback
by Jean-Denis G.G. Lepage
Paperback / softback
Description
This book gives the reader a straightforward and continuous survey of the history of the French Foreign Legion.
By outlining the Legion's vicissitudes, victorious campaigns, epic marches, heroic and sometimes hopeless stands, dirtiest combats and dramatic defeats, but also by briefly placing the Legion back in the historical background of France, and by describing its development, organization, uniforms, equipments and weapons, the author hopes to dispel myths, and try to give a true and accurate picture of what the French Foreign Legion has been from 1831 until today.
