delta Posted 12 May , 2010 Share Posted 12 May , 2010 The Tanks on the Somme I have been keeping my eyes open for this, ever since Trevor's untimely death. It is the follow-up to his ground-breaking "The Tanks at Flers" http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tanks-Somme-Morval...3697&sr=8-1 Have pre-ordered a copy and will provide a review as soon as I can Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Lees Posted 12 May , 2010 Share Posted 12 May , 2010 I have pre-ordered too - and significantly cheaper than on Amazon: http://www.whsmith.co.uk/CatalogAndSearch/...D=9781848842533 Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulgranger Posted 12 May , 2010 Share Posted 12 May , 2010 It would be nice if Trevor's original book was available at something less than the 75 quid being quoted on Amazon. Still, it's a rarity these days, so I suppose the efect of market forces is to be expected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianw Posted 12 May , 2010 Share Posted 12 May , 2010 I treasure my signed copy of Trevor's first book and will certainly order this new one. One of the great experiences of my times on the Western Front was a tour round the interior of High Wood with Trevor - no doubt during a research trip for his latest Somme volume. A true gentleman who wore his wonderful Great War scholarship very lightly indeed. He is sadly missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
