About This Item
Spellmount Publishers , 2008. First Edition. Hardcover. Good Condition (ex-library)/Very Good. An ex-library copy with stamps and stickers.Clean, bright pages, light discolouration to closed page block, very lightly edgeworn jacket. This book makes it possible to comprehend, via the trench naming, the daily life in the trenches, the vast range of weaponry and the lethal nature of the titanic battles. Names such as Lovers Lane, Doleful Post, Cyanide Trench and Gangrene Alley are as revealing as any history. While based upon the British trenches, there is a comparison with French and German practice. While a poignant concordance of suffering and an intriguing study of language itself, this book is also a vital research tool for military and family historians. 408 pages. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Military & Warfare; ISBN/EAN: 9781862272767. Inventory No: dscf6629. . 9781862272767
