In the annals of military history, the Western Front stands as an enduring symbol of the folly of war. However, here bestselling historian Nick Lloyd reveals that the story is not, as so many assume, one of pointlessness and stupidity.
Drawing upon the latest scholarship, wrongly overlooked accounts and archival material, Lloyd explains the achievements that have been obscured by legends of mud, blood and futility. He recreates the decision-making and experiences of the war as it was and redefines our understanding of this monumental tragedy.
