Book excerpt: Includes the First World War Illustrations Pack – 73 battle plans and diagrams and 198 photos “A young British soldier who went to war on two wheels “When the Great War broke out, the author of this book decided to leave his university studies and join the struggle. What attracted him immediately was the potential to combine his military service with his love of motorcycles and so it was that he found himself one of a select group of motorcycle despatch riders within the 5th Division of the ‘Contemptible Little Army’ that went to France and Belgium to halt the overwhelming numerical superiority of the advancing German Army. This book, an account of his experiences in the early months of the war, tells the story of a conflict of fluid manoeuvre and dogged retreat. Together with congested roads filled with military traffic and refugees, the ever present threat of artillery barrage and changing front lines the author had to constantly be aware of the presence of the deadly Uhlans-mounted German Lancers-who were always ready to pitch horseflesh against horsepower.”—Print Ed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Captain William Henry Lowe Watson (1891-1932) was the British author of Adventures of a Despatch Rider (1915). (Excerpt) "This book is not a history, a military treatise, an essay, or a scrap of autobiography. It has no more accuracy or literary merit than letters usually possess. So I hope you will not judge it too harshly. My only object is to try and show as truthfully as I can the part played in this monstrous war by a despatch rider during the months from August 1914 to February 1915. If that object is gained I am content."

Book Synopsis Communications and British Operations on the Western Front, 1914–1918 by : Brian N. Hall
Download or read book Communications and British Operations on the Western Front, 1914–1918 written by Brian N. Hall and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-06-07 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an important new study examining the military operations of the British Expeditionary Force in 1914–18 through the lens of its communications system. Brian Hall charts how new communications technology such as wireless, telephone and telegraph were used alongside visual signalling, carrier pigeons and runners as the British army struggled to develop a communication system adequate enough to wage modern warfare. He reveals how tenuous communications added to the difficulties of command and control during the war's early years, and examines their role during the major battles of the Somme, Arras, Ypres and Cambrai. It was only in 1918 that the British army would finally develop a flexible and sophisticated communications system capable of effectively coordinating infantry, artillery, tanks and aeroplanes. This is a major contribution to our understanding of British military operations during the First World War, the learning processes of armies and the revolution in military affairs.

Download or read book Despatch Rider on the Western Front, 1915–18 written by David Venner and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2015-04-30 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The colorful eyewitness-to-history diary of a young man who loved motorcycles—and used these new machines to serve his country in the Great War. This is the skillfully abridged version of the diary of a First World War motorcycle despatch rider, Sergeant Albert Simpkin, who was attached to the HQ 37th Division. The diary entries, and some longer descriptions of the main actions of the Division, provide a fascinating record of the life of a despatch rider on the Western Front—one day dodging shell holes and ammunition limbers to take his despatches to the front, the next observing the quaint but often courageous lives of the local populace. Throughout the diary are colorful and amusing anecdotes about his fellow soldiers, and critical comments on the strategies and tactics employed by the officers. “It is worth seeking out and reading and if you are a fan of Great War motorbikes and vehicles this is a must.” —War History Online
