"The Great War Generals on the Western Front 1914-1918" challenges the widely held belief that incompetent British generals were solely responsible for the devastating losses of World War I. It investigates the popular allegation that these leaders, detached from the grim realities of the front lines, mindlessly sent countless soldiers to their deaths.
This book examines the decisions and actions of commanders within the context of their time, considering the circumstances and the personalities involved. The author seeks to explain why battles were fought in particular ways and at specific times and places, offering a fresh perspective on the factors that shaped the conflict. While not excusing errors, it invites readers to study the facts, apply common sense, and arrive at their own conclusions regarding the true nature of leadership during this pivotal period in history.
