As the world marks the 100th anniversary of the start of World War I, the bestselling novelGenerals Die in Bedbecomes more relevant than ever. Originally published in 1930, the landmark novel was one of the first to shatter the world’s illusion that war is a glorious endeavor. Instead, this chilling first-hand account brought readers face to face with the brutal, ugly realities of life in the trenches. Often compared toAll Quiet on the Western FrontandA Farewell to Arms, Generals Die in Bedwas described byThe New York Timesas a burning, breathing, historic document.” With veterans of WWI no longer here to tell their tales, this book stands as a lasting monument to the horror of war.
