A good book which is well written, in formative and very evocative of life in the trenches towards the end of the Battle of the Somme. Read the full review [link=https://www.arrse.co.uk/community/reviews/twelve-days-on-the-somme.1451/]here[/link]
Army Rumour Service (ARRSE)

This is a personal reflection from an Australian soldier which shows beautiful description of the horrors of the trenches. It is written in an engaging style which immediately pulls you into his life and what he witnessed in graphic detail but not to the point where it becomes difficult to read. This is a book that must be read by anyone wanting to know what the trenches were like by a normal soldier.

All in all, I consider myself quite fortunate to have encountered these books and recommend them highly. Along with leaving no factual stone unturned, Veranneman includes scores of archival photos and extensive notes in each book. Both were obviously a labor of love and should have a prominent place on the shelf of every history buff.

Horses and cavalry are often regarded as an old fashioned trait of the British army in World War 1. In a time of machine guns, what use could horses be? David Kenyon explains wonderfully how adaptive the horsemen were from supplies to combining their efforts with other ranks of the Britsh Army. With some wonderful firsthand photographs and pages of bibliography, souces and notes this is a must for any sort of study into the first world war. Packed full of history and resources it is surprisingly a nice easy read. Read the full review [link=https://tastesthroughtime.co.uk/book-reviews/]here[/link]
