Description

The authors have examined the entire public archive covering the Somme campaign in 1916 and painstakingly reconstruct the day-by-day course of the war. The result is the most precise and authentic account of the campaign on record, and a book which challenges almost every received view of the battle. As-new, in dust jacket.
