Pvt. Hope. Posted 23 September , 2008 Share Posted 23 September , 2008 "This collection of writings covers the war on the Western Front. Whereas, traditionally, attention has been given to strategic or political matters, these essays highlight tactical issues. They show that the British high command could boast more achievements in tactics than is usually assumed. The volume covers: the extent of tactical reform in the British Army after the Somme battle; the medical analysis of the treatment of casualties; the progress of British Artillery from 1914 to the 1990s; the role of the British military police; the rise of armour; the importance of the cavalry in the development of breakthrough doctrine; and the new spirit inspiring the rising generation of BEF" The Book: http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=t-X_jLO...7m-Fc7g#PPP1,M1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
