Synopsis
The 7th in a series of acclaimed histories by the leading chronicler of WW I. It describes the first months of 1918 when the stalemate of the trenches was brought to an end by a massive German assault on the Western Front. It broke the British line - it almost broke the British Army. This is the account of the battle, the long fighting retreat and the stand at Amiens which saved the city, secured the line, and caused Ludendorff to call off his offensive. Mostly, it is the story of the men- the Commanders caught in a maze of dilemmas, the weary, resolute British Tommies, the exultant German boys, the French poilus rushed up to stiffen the defence, the nonchalant Aussies and Kiwis and the still unblooded Doughboys from the U.S.A.
