Hardback. 1. The diaries of the most controversial British general of the twentieth century.There's a commonly held view that Douglas Haig was a bone-headed, callous butcher, who through his incompetence as commander of the British Army in WWI, killed a generation of young men on the Somme and Passchendaele. On the other hand there are those who view Haig as a man who successfully struggled with appalling difficulties to produce an army which took the lead in defeating Germany in 1918, winning the greatest series of victories in British Military history. Just as the success of the Alanbrooke war diaries can be put down to its 'horse's mouth' view of Churchill and the conduct of WWII, so Haig's Diaries, hitherto only previously available in bowdlerised form, give the C-in-C's view of Asquith - he records him getting drunk and incapable - and his successor Lloyd George, of whom he was highly critical. As Haig records the relationship it was stormy ('I have no great opinion of L.Gas a man or leader' - Sept 1916). The diaries show him intriguing with the King (George V) vs. Lloyd George. Additionally - and never previously published - are his day by day accounts of the key battles of the war, not least the Somme campaign of 1916. 'I found Foch (Allied C-in-C) most selfish and obstinate. . Foch suffers from a swollen head, and thinks himself another Napoleon.' Haig is revealed as an early admirer of the tank and of the 'airoplane'. He revels in turning the well-meaniin BEF under Sir John French into the professional fighting force that eventually won the war. 2005, First edition, first printing. A fine, unmarked and unread copy in a fine, unclipped d/w. Scans available if required.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the experiences of the author, a field marshal, during the First World War. It offers a unique perspective not only on his role during the war but on the war as a whole. The author argues war is not to be entered into lightly. It is a long, drawn-out affair marked by loss that requires a massive collective effort to endure. The author suggests that the scale of this war required a new approach to soldiering. He believes that it is in the great engagements of 1916 and 1917 that we must look to see the roots of a hard-fought victory in 1918. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
