I would strongly recommend this book: I love group photos of soldiers at the front, I appreciate the photos that show the logistical aspect of the war (and here there are so many), I believe that the variety of artillery pieces shown is enormous and that Bilton's effort to show the transformation of an army through many significant photos should be rewarded.
