Sample Book Insights:
#1 In August 1914, four young British soldiers were lost in France. They had barely a clue as to their whereabouts, but knew that they were not supposed to be there. The war was not going according to plan.
#2 The British army was faced with a field-grey wave of three-quarters of a million Germans, who were chasing them down. The British fought with determination, then desperation. Some soldiers began to see ghosts and castles along the way.
#3 The British army was terrified during the retreat from Mons. The lines stretched and snapped, authority faded, and the distinctions between regiment and division blurred as units fragmented, reformed, or broke away.
#4 The British army was a different kind of army, made up of volunteers from the industrial slums of the north. They were experienced and well-trained, and they had fought in the Boer War.
