PASSCHENDAELE: Unseen Panoramas of the Third Battle of Ypres

Latest in a lavishly produced series of previously unseen WW1 panoramas, this offers 50 British and 20 German views of the hell of Passchendaele as you have never viewed it before.

This superbly illustrated and eye-opening book truly offers a view of the western front as we have never seen it before. Advances in printing technology has enabled the Imperial War Museum to reproduce over 50 panoramic pictures taken of the front lines by intrepid photographers - often at risk to their own lives. Accompanied by previously unseen images from British archives and by some 20 German panoramas, and by contrasting contemporary photographs and diagrams , the result is the most complete and devastating picture of the shell-blasted mudscape of Passchendaele ever published. The reader is put at the very center of the front line on both sides, peering over the parapets into the desolate hell of No Man’s Land. Accompanied by an informed and expert text by IWM historian Peter Barton, a leading authority on the Ypres salient, this lavishly produced book belongs on the shelves of everyone interested in the Great War generally, and Passchendaele in particular.
