Paperback. Condition: New. A compelling account of the battle for Passchendaele from grand strategy at the highest levels right down to the experience of the ordinary infantrymen.In the autumn of 1917, after years of stalemate at Ypres, the British and French armies launched a massive offensive to take Passchendaele Ridge. Following an intensive bombardment the Allies began their attack, but the low ground between the lines had been churned into a quagmire, and the attack was literally bogged down.All surprise had been lost, and the German defence in depth was well organised. For the first time the Germans used mustard gas, while German planes flew low to strafe the British infantry with machine guns. After two and a half months the British finally took the ridge they had been aiming for, but at the cost of over 300,000 Allied lives. German losses in the offensive were estimated at 260,000.Based on the archival holdings at the Imperial War Museum, this book gathers together a wealth of material about this horrific offensive. A history to appeal to the scholar and the general reader alike.…

Soft cover. Condition: Fine. Fine. 2007 Reissue (Sixth Impression; number line: 7 9 10 8 6). Cassell Military Paperbacks series. Octavo (approx. 7.75 x 5.1 inches); xxiv, 451, [5] pp. Bound in publisher's original pictorial card wrappers featuring an archival photograph of stretcher-bearers traversing the devastated mud of the Ypres Salient. Illustrated with operational campaign maps, 16 pages of glossy black-and-white archival photographic plates from the Imperial War Museum, documentary source notes, select bibliography, and comprehensive index. A fresh, tight, unread copy with sharp corners, an unbent and uncreased spine, solid glue binding, and clean, bright pages throughout. Retains original publisher prices (£9.99 / $16.95 / $18.99) intact over the rear barcode. Written by Imperial War Museum oral historians Nigel Steel and Peter Hart, Passchendaele: The Sacrificial Ground is an authoritative, deeply moving combat history of the Third Battle of Ypres (July-November 1917). Moving past sterile strategic assessments of Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig's Flanders offensive, Steel and Hart draw upon hundreds of previously unpublished firsthand diaries, letters, and recorded interviews from the Imperial War Museum sound archives. The narrative captures the horrifying conditions of frontline trench combat: unceasing artillery bombardments that destroyed the Flemish drainage system, liquid mud that swallowed artillery and wounded men alive, mustard gas attacks, and the meat-grinder attrition that culminated in the capture of the ruined village of Passchendaele by Canadian and British forces. A benchmark volume in World War I Western Front literature and British operational history.…
