[Skipman]

Recueil de documents militaires allemands de la grande guerre, 1914-1918, pub. pour la première fois avec l'autorisation de Grand Quartier général, à l'usage des écoles militaires (1920)

Here's a book for all you clever people who read French and German, but for all who struggle, like myself, here's google translate's version of the contents. Sorry about any errors. There are some maps here that may be useful. This is the only Colour map, others are basic trench maps ( German I think?)
