Book Overview

""France Bears The Burden"" is a historical book written by Granville Roland Fortescue and published in 1917. The book provides a detailed account of France's role in World War I, particularly in the first two years of the conflict.

The book covers a range of topics, including the early battles of the war, the impact of trench warfare on the French soldiers, the role of women in the war effort, and the political and social changes that occurred in France during the war.
