Ken Lees Posted 3 September , 2006 Share Posted 3 September , 2006 Sabine, I have it. It is very comprehensive. It is divided into chronological sections for each phase of the battle, then lists the officers killed, many with photographs. It also provides a map for each section showing the distribution of units throughout the front. It has numerous appendices. A particularly useful one shows, in table form, the time spent in the front line by each Division & Brigade. A fine piece of research. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
