New First World War Book By Richard Holmes?

Recommended Posts

Back in June I went to a lecture by Richard Holmes (not on a WW1 subject!) but he did mention that he had a new First World War book coming out this autumn (September, I think). For the past few weeks I have been looking for it but have drawn a complete blank. Can any Pal point me in the right direction? Many thanks in advance.

Kind regards

Bought this a couple of weeks ago and found it well worth the money - on the GWF link from Amazon - some good photographs and some more unusal ones as well as some seen elesewhere. Good comments on the pictures from Professor Holmes as well.

I particularly liked the one of Jacky, Baboon mascot of the 3rd Battalion South African Infantry and the brief description of him.
