I found this book very interesting and very sad. I had to reread several sections twice as I could not believe the blunders that the allies had made causing such immense casualties.
I commend the author on his tremendous amount of research which was portrayed or written very skillfully and sensitively.

Peter Barton's 90th Anniversary pot-boiler. Very pretty to look at and some interesting material but, in the areas of this reviewer's expertise, it contains rather too many errors to be relied on without reservation.
