About this listen

Huge armies — hundreds of thousands of men strong — race toward Paris in the Great Retreat of 1914. But this hot, dusty, and long journey south isn't to see who will get there first... it's to see who will win the war. In this episode, we trace the movements of the French, British, and German armies from Mons to the Marne; while the fate of the conflict hangs in the balance.

You'll learn about:

  • rearguard action
  • firsthand accounts of the retreat
  • and the lead-up to the First Battle of the Marne
