MEN OF THE CENOTAPH: 8/8: Nick Lloyd, The Western Front: A History of the Great War, 1914-1918 



https://www.amazon.com/Western-Front-History-Great-1914-1918/dp/B09NS2DT8X



A panoramic history of the savage combat on the Western Front between 1914 and 1918 that came to define modern warfare.



The Western Front evokes images of mud-spattered men in waterlogged trenches, shielded from artillery blasts and machine-gun fire by a few feet of dirt. This iconic setting was the most critical arena of the Great War, a 400-mile combat zone stretching from Belgium to Switzerland where more than three million Allied and German soldiers struggled during four years of almost continuous combat. It has persisted in our collective memory as a tragic waste of human life and a symbol of the horrors of industrialized warfare.
