Griffith, Paddy
Battle Tactics of the Western Front : The British Army's Art of Attack 1916-1918
New Haven CT U.S.A.: Yale University Press 1996. 286 pp maps figures tables notes annotated bibliog index. Historians have portrayed British participation in the Great War as a series of tragic debacles with lines of men mown down by machine guns untried new military technology and incompetent generals who threw their troops into improvised and unsuccessful attacks. In this book Paddy Griffith a renowned military historian examines the evolution of British infantry tactics during the war and challenges this interpretation showing that while the British army's plans and technologies persistently failed during the improvised first half of the war the army gradually improved its technique technology and eventually its self-assurance. By the time of its successful sustained offensive in the autumn of 1918 he argues the British army was demonstrating a battlefield skill and mobility that would rarely be surpassed even during the Second World War.
