PASSCHENDAELE: THE UNTOLD STORY (Pbk)

Examining strategy, weaponry, technology, intelligence and the experience on the ground, the authors provide the fullest account of the campaign yet published. The carnage on the Western Front at Passchendaele, where 275,000 Allied and 200,000 German soldiers fell, was neither inevitable nor inescapable, the authors of this volume insist. Robin Prior and Trevor Wilson offer a complete account of the campaign, establishing what actually occurred, what options were available, and who was responsible for the devastation. This edition includes corrections and a new preface indicating the results of research completed since first publication. Now out-of-print and limited stock available.
