Stu,

Eastern France has always been a problem in the English language. However, there is a brand-new book by Herwig and titled "Marne 1914".

The first 150 pages or so are about the battles of the frontiers and includes a great deal in English about fights with the French. Most English-language studies deal with the British and really key on the battle of Mons. This new addition is very very welcome. We are seriously discussing writing a book centered around the Bavarian experience in the battle of frontiers.
 
Considered as a part of the battle of Lorraine, this lemma of wikipedia might help? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Lorraine .
Otherwise I have to study my French Hanotaux for some details and I have to translate it. If you have a specific question, please p.m. me, Stuart.
