Following France’s crushing defeat in the Franco-Prussian War in 1871, the nation sought to avenge its humiliation on the commander of its forces, François-Achille Bazaine, who had surrendered at Metz. This newly researched, thoroughly illustrated reappraisal assesses his battlefield decisions, and describes his court martial and death sentence, commuted to life imprisonment on the Ile Ste-Marguerite, before recounting his remarkable escape with his young Mexican wife Pepita.
