The Western Front : a history of the First World War

Lloyd, Nick2021
Books, Manuscripts
In the annals of military history, the Western Front stands as an enduring symbol of the folly and futility of war. However, this book reveals that the story is not, as so many assume, one of pointlessness and stupidity. Rather, it is an epic triumph against the odds. With a cast of hundreds and a huge canvas of places and events, Nick Lloyd tells the whole tale, revealing what happened in France and Belgium between August 1914 and November 1918 from the perspective of all the main combatants - including French, British, Belgian, US and, most importantly, German forces.
