“No amount of skill on the part of the higher commanders, no training, however good, on the part of the officers and men, no superiority of arms and ammunition, however great, will enable victories to be won without the sacrifice of men’s lives”. (Written by Haig in June 1916 before the Battle of the Somme began)

While researching the battlefields, the author, acclaimed film maker Ed Skelding, has taken many photographs with the intention of selecting locations for filming. Each has been carefully chosen to maintain the narrative and, as much as possible, to put the viewer/reader on the spot where the action took place. While this book will take the reader to the most recognised locations on the Somme, it will also take them to the places less well known, off the beaten track.This title is very much in the style of a “Then and Now “publication.
