I hope that y'all can forgive me for not being able to offer any German or French books from the same period, but I am not familiar with the WWI literature in those languages.

Swinton doesn't have a good reputation among most scholars. I think the kindest opinion of him was that he was a "relentless self-promoter". It's best to verify anything he says from an independent source.
