Page 280, penultimate line. After "further south" add new footnote: "It is now accepted in France that the British retirement on the night of the 4th/5th September was in accordance with the instructions from General Joffre in force at the time and not a 'dérobade'. See 'Joffre et Galliéni à la Marne', pp. 65-7, by Capitaine P. Lyet, published in 1938 by the 'Service Historique' of the French General Staff with a preface by General Gamelin, Chief of the General Staff of National Defence, who was one of General Joffre's General Staff officers at the time of the Battle of the Marne 1914."
