About this product

Product Information

The most compelling, critically acclaimed, account ever written of the climax of trench warfare on the Western Front 'A timely re-appraisal . . . a masterpiece' General Lord Richard Dannatt Between July and November 1917, in a small corner of Belgium, more than 500,000 men were killed or maimed, gassed or drowned - and many of the bodies were never found. The Ypres offensive represents the modern impression of the First World War- splintered trees, water-filled craters, muddy shell-holes. The climax was one of the worst battles of both world wars- Passchendaele. The village fell eventually, only for the whole offensive to be called off. But, as Nick Lloyd shows, notably through previously unexamined German documents, it put the Allies nearer to a major turning point in the war than we have ever imagined.
