The Last Battle by Peter Hart
The final few months of The Great War have rarely got the focus of those that proceeded them. The final offensive that finally silenced the guns and ended the slaughter was one in great contrast to the static game of inches of the years before. In The Last Battle, histoian Peter Hart superbly manages to show us the great scope of Foch’s great offensive while putting us in the mud with the men tasked with marching to the “green fields beyond”.
