From the inside jacket cover...
The definitive account of one of the bloodiest battles in world history -- a military tragedy that would come to define a generation.
On July 1, 1916, the British Army launched the "Big Push" that was supposed to bring an end to the horrific stalemate on the Western Front between British, French, and German forces. What resulted was one of the greatest single human catastrophes in twentieth century warfare. [...] Expertly weaving together letters, diaries, and other first-person accounts, Peter Hart gives us a fresh approach to The Battle of the Somme.
