A Studio Luna Reading of "A Great War" By James Christy October 4, 2010

In 1905, the German military drew up a secret plan for a surprise attack that would defeat the French army in six weeks. This plan was both deeply flawed and highly regarded, and it would become the basis for the start of World War I. A Great War explores the personal costs of war through the story of two soldiers: one an ambitious officer who uses the misguided war plan to further his career, even at the expense of his own troops; and the other, a patriotic Jewish private who survives the bloodiest battles of the war before discovering the truth about how it was started.
