Dopo appena un mese di guerra, la Francia è già sull'orlo del baratro. L'invasione tedesca sta andando esattamente secondo le previsioni del Piano Schlieffen, e l'esercito francese è in ritirata. La battaglia decisiva si combatte lungo un fronte di 300 chilometri, che passa non lontano da Parigi, sulle rive di un fiume che sta per passare alla storia. Proprio da questo fiume prenderà il nome la battaglia che sta per decidere le sorti della Francia e dell'intera Prima guerra mondiale: la battaglia della Marna.

Per scrivere questo episodio ho consultato diversi testi, e in particolare:

Tuchman, I cannoni d'agosto, Neri Pozza
Janz, 1914-1918. La Grande guerra, Einaudi
Liddel Hart, La Prima Guerra mondiale, Rizzoli
Keegan, La Prima guerra mondiale. Una storia politico-militare, Carocci
Sondhaus, Prima guerra mondiale. Una rivoluzione globale, Einaudi
Rusconi, 1914: attacco a Occidente, Il Mulino
Hastings, Catastrofe 1914. L'Europa in guerra, Neri Pozza
