Download or read book Major & Mrs Holt's Concise Illustrated Battlefield Guide to the Western Front, South written by Valmai Holt and published by Major and Mrs Holt's Battlefie. This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Battle of the Marne; The Aisne 1914; Verdun; The Somme 1916; Chemin des Dames 1917-1918; Cambrai; The Kaiser's Offensive; Second Battle of the Marne (The Ourcq, Chateau Thierry, Belleau Wood); St Mihiel: Champagne 1918; The Meuse-Argonne and Breaking the Hindenberg Line. Major and Mrs. Holt's Concise Illustrated Battlefield Guide to the Western Front - South contains many fascinating but little-visited areas by travelers and is hoped that they will be tempted further afield than the 'showcase' and sophisticatedly presented battlefields like the Somme to discover some marvelous sites. Many of them have lain virtually 'dormant' for many years (such as areas of the Meuse-Argonne and Champagne) but have recently been renovated and opened up by dedicated local enthusiasts. There are many 'gems' in store in this book. Each battlefield starts with some pertinent quotations by participants, has a succinct Summary of the Battle, Opening Moves and What Happened sections then a Battlefield Tour which follows the same tried and tested formula as the rest of the series of a timed and measured itinerary with historic and anecdotal information at each stop. A detailed Sketch Map showing battle lines and each stop on the route accompanies every battle using the same color code (of yellow for memorials, purple for cemeteries, blue for museums) as the larger Holts' Battle Maps. Together the two books Major and Mrs. Holt's Concise, Illustrated Concise Illustrated Battlefield Guide to the Western Front - South and North will form the most comprehensive and detailed English-language guides to the World War I Western Front ever produced.

Download or read book The Middlebrook Guide to the Somme Battlefields written by Martin Middlebrook and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2007-10-06 with total page 623 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While best known as being the scene of the most terrible carnage in the WW1 the French department of the Somme has seen many other battles from Roman times to 1944. William the Conqueror launched his invasion from there; the French and English fought at Crecy in 1346; Henry Vs army marched through on their way to Agincourt in 1415; the Prussians came in 1870.The Great War saw three great battles and approximately half of the 400,000 who died on the Somme were British a terrible harvest, marked by 242 British cemeteries and over 50,000 lie in unmarked graves. These statistics explain in part why the area is visited year-on-year by ever increasing numbers of British and Commonwealth citizens. This evocative book written by the authors of the iconic First Day on the Somme is a thorough guide to the cemeteries, memorials and battlefields of the area, with the emphasis on the fighting of 1916 and 1918, with fascinating descriptions and anecdotes.
