This book offers a fresh, critical history of the 1917 campaigns in Flanders and at Cambrai. Drawing on a rich array of sources, Warren provides a vivid account of two tragically mismanaged battles. Cambrai further underlined what went wrong for British forces at Passchendaele, thus more fully explaining the course of events on the Western front.
