Book Synopsis Paths of Glory by : Humphrey Cobb
Book excerpt: The inspiration for Kubrick's acclaimed 1957 film, this is an epic story of combat and injustice that remains an antiwar masterpiece. Frenchmen during the First World War are ordered to assault a German position deemed all but invulnerable. When the attack fails, an inquiry into allegations of cowardice indicts a handful of lower-ranked scapegoats whose trial exposes a tragic farce.
