Now all roads lead to France and heavy is the tread
Of the living; but the dead returning lightly dance.

The Road Less Traveled: The Secret Battle to End the Great War, 1916-1917 by Philip Zelikow


Rather than presenting our usual book review for this interesting volume, I recommend that our readers watch this interview of author Philip Zelikow conducted by historian of Niall Ferguson of the Hoover Institution. By the way, Zelikow has an interesting public service record having played important although somewhat controversial roles with the 911 Commission and during the COVID lock-down.
