In Flanders Field - the 1917 Campaign

n Flanders Fields begins on New Year's Day 1917 and the violence which ensued; it looks at the ways in which men died and looks at the politics, putting a spotlight on the leaders, and how the campaign was conceived, sponsored and opposed.Br>Reasons for this seemingly endless onslaught are still debated today by military historians, yet in this novelisation of the infamous battle, Wolff goes some way to explain the unexplainable: how was it possible to have such slaughter on an industrial scale only one year after the Somme.
