Stalemate!: The Great Trench Warfare Battles of 1915-1917

Neuve Chapelle, Loos, Somme, Arras, Ypres, Cambrai--six attempts to break through the German lines, six of the most famous, catastrophic offensives of the First World War in which tens of thousands of soldiers lost their lives. This book examines and assesses these battles, which are renowned for tragic human suffering and little immediate strategic gain.
