The reason is simple. Although I have always read and re-read the essay many times, I haven’t worked with an editor in getting it ready. This is scary for a career journalist.

Tra l’Ourcq e il Grand-Morin, negli ultimi quattro giorni contemplati dal piano si lasciarono sfuggire le «vittoria decisiva» e quindi l’occasione di vincere la guerra. Per la Francia, per i suoi alleati e in ultima analisi per il mondo la battaglia della Marna ebbe questo di tragico: che poteva essere la vittoria e non lo fu.
