註釋"Whole waves were swept by the fire. The dead lay in long rows where they had fallen, the wounded lay with them." It was a bitter battle of attrition that cost the British army 58, 000 casualties on the first day alone; a five-month slaughter that ended in muddy stalemate. Journey to the frontline with this book and 60-minute DVD and witness one of the most momentous and ill-fated offensives of the Great War. See how the battle unfolded, with archive images and film footage, interviews, key military features and 'then and now' views of the battlefield that reveal the full, tragic story. Discover the reasons behind the offensive, its impact and aftermath. Bring the war home: accompanying genealogical information allows you to trace ancestors who fought or fell during this terrible conflict.
