"A rich and realistic French novel, complete and unabridged!"
While it's never a good idea to judge a book by its cover, I'd lay odds that the cancan has nothing whatsoever to do with the story, which apparently deals with the grueling chaos of war-torn France. Needless to say, any work of fiction set in Paris requires a reference to either the Moulin Rouge or le chahut, and this was probably the most eye-catching image the publishers could think of get away with at the time.
