joerookery Posted 19 August , 2019 Share Posted 19 August , 2019 There is a relatively new online resource that some of you members might be interested in. It is a series of written blogs. I bring this to your attention as we have been going day by day through the German side in August 1914. Currently at 19 August 1914, we are about to make contact with the BEF. This is just history not militaria – this is based around the new book – "German Failure in Belgium, August 1914 by Dennis Showalter and the Robinsons. A lot of nice short history blogs of Germans in World War I. And it seems a lot of people read it and comment with their morning coffee/tea. Take a peek. Check out the Facebook group German1914. https://www.facebook.com/groups/464980827680299/ If you do not do Facebook you can also find the blogs in an archive at the following website: german1914.com www.german1914.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joerookery Posted 21 August , 2019 Author Share Posted 21 August , 2019 Dave, If you are doing the Facebook thing just jump in! This is been a lot of fun and the British are about to collide with the Germans. As you can tell this is totally different than what Zuber lead a lot of people to think about Mons!
