Know about the book -

To Lose a Battle is written by Alistair Horne and published by Penguin UK. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0141937726 (ISBN 10) and 9780141937724 (ISBN 13).

In 1940, the German army fought and won an extraordinary battle with France in six weeks of lightning warfare. With the subtlety and compulsion of a novel, Horne’s narrative shifts from minor battlefield incidents to high military and political decisions, stepping far beyond the confines of military history to form a major contribution to our understanding of the crises of the Franco-German rivalry. To Lose a Battle is the third part of the trilogy beginning with The Fall of Paris and continuing with The Price of Glory (already available in Penguin).
