The Somme
Autor Sarah Ridleyen Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 apr 2016 – vârsta de la 12 până la 16 ani
"The Somme" investigates the build-up to the battle, why leaders thought the action was necessary and what they thought it would achieve. It looks at the forces involved, including the 'Pals' battalions - patriotic friends who fought, and more often than not died, together.
Although not a straightforward timeline, the book outlines the actual course of the battle beginning on 1 July 1916 -and the impact of the continuing slaughter on both sides. Quotes from those who took part offer a glimpse of what it must have been like to be there, and maps show how little was actually achieved in terms of a breakthrough.
