The epic and brutal WWI battle is vividly recounted through the words and photos of the soldiers who lived through it.

One of the most famous battles of the Great War, the offensive on the Somme took place in 1916, from July and November. It was there that Kitcheners famous Pals Battalions were first sent into action en masse. It was a battlefield where many of the dreams and aspirations of a nation, hopeful of victory, were agonizingly dashed.

Because of its legendary status, the Battle of the Somme has been the subject of many books. Yet this volume is the first of its kind, in which the soldiers' own stories and photographs are used to illustrate both the campaign's extraordinary comradeship and its carnage.
