War on the Western Front Author: Dr Gary Sheffield

ISBN: 9780753726334 Format: Hardcover Number Of Pages: 272 Published: 29 April 2014 Country of Publication: GB Dimensions (cm): 25.0 x 19.6 x 2.4 Description: This book is a collection of essays by well known First World War contributors such as Dr Stephen Bull, Ian Drury, Thomas A. Hoff, Martin Pegler and Ian Sumner.

World War I stands as a watershed in the evolution of modern warfare, with the development of sophisticated trench systems forming a battlefield over 400 miles long; innovations in weaponry and equipment; and the introduction of tanks in battle.

Without the ordinary soldier, however, there could have been no war: The Great War was very much a conflict of infantrymen - Tommies, Stormtrooper, Poilus and Doughboys. War on the Western Front provides an extensive re-assessment of trench warfare, a revolutionary tactic that challenged the very idea of war, and details developments in weaponry and armoured vehicles, including terrifying innovations in the use of poison gas, flamethrowers and tanks.
