Bounty Bounty

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.
