Description

Storm of Steel, a memoir of astonishing power and savagery, is a powerful account of the horrors and fascination of total war. Written by Ernst Jünger, a young German soldier, the book follows his experiences during World War I, where he led raiding parties, defended trenches, and endured the brutal conditions of war.

Published in a stunning Deluxe Edition, this book offers a unique perspective on the Great War, as seen through the eyes of an ordinary soldier. Jünger's account is marked by self-awareness and a sense of personal struggle, as he tests himself against the death that surrounds him.

Rediscovered upon the centennial of the Battle of the Somme, Storm of Steel is a bracing read for fans of war literature. With its powerful and lyrical prose, this book provides a thought-provoking exploration of the human experience during times of war.
