This book explores the myths of this infamous battle, and the use of mines, tunnels, gas and flame-throwers by the British in combination with innovative tactics such as smoke. Andrew Robertshaw analyses the first day of the battle, explaining how British tactics developed as a result of the experience of the Somme, and provides an overview of the events along the entire front line, examining the actions of two British Corps, VIII at Serre and XIII at Montauban.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Robertshaw\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1846030382\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781846030383\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Osprey Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 7.30w x 0.35d","brand":"Andrew Robertshaw","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44756781302015,"sku":"9781846030383","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4cd726a5-a042-4994-b13b-c0208f213843.jpg?v=1706593830","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/somme-1-july-1916-andrew-robertshaw-9781846030383","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
