Poor. Marks on page edges,and top r/h corner of last 100 pages. showing signs of use but useful study copy. In early 1918, after months of stalemate, a massive German offensive broke the British line - & almost broke the British Army. This book captures the impact of that terrible assault, the long fighting retreat, the vital stand at Amiens which finally secured the line. Many of the troops, ordered to hold a position 'to the last man', were mere teenagers, who found courage in desperate situations in camaraderie, jokes & bravado. The result is a compelling picture of the human face of war.

The Campaign in the desert, 1916-18. This is a study of Lawrence's ideas and his campaign of irregular warfare which has informed tactical theory and decision-making down to the present day. It explores the challenges he faced in a complex environment against a more numerous and better armed adversary, and the manner in which he assessed what was changing, what was distinctive, and what was unique to guerrilla warfare in the desert. Setting Lawrence in his historical context, the book examines the peace settlement he participated in and his legacy today.
