Περιγραφή : The 1916 Battle of the Somme is not restricted to the view of the front-line infantryman, it also relates the experiences of the gunner, sapper, airman, medical officer, and nursing sister. The author explains how the Somme became scorched into the nation's heritage and into its historical consciousness, but with a distortion produced by a literary legacy as regrettable as it is understandable. In this substantial, powerfully argued, and convincing case, Liddle takes issue with the judgement of some historians and with the commonly held verdict on the battle. Furthermore, in an entirely appropriate conclusion, he demonstrates how the morale of the British Expeditionary Force triumphantly survived such a long and demanding experience.
