About This Item
(Subject: World War I - Western Front) Small crease on bottom r/h corner of cover. For almost seventy years the very name of the battle has epitomized all the horror and hardship of the First World War. There was hardly a family in the land who had not seen at least one son join up in the heady innocence and enthusiasm that swept the country in 1914. The Battle of the Somme was their baptism of fire. A hundred and fifty thousand of the soldiers they proudly called "our boys" died in it, and three hundred thousand more were maimed or wounded. "Somme" is a human chronicle of life as well as death, a vivid blend of military history and the immediacy of personal recollection that puts us uniquely in touch with ordinary people caught up in momentous events. (Published: 1983) (Publisher: Penguin Books) (ISBN: 0140178678) (Pagination: xviii + 366pp, 16 photos, maps, index) (Condition: ) UL-XXXXXX
