Tracing Your First World War Ancestors
Impressive book covering the Western front during 1918. Apart from the offensives by both the Germans and the Allies, Malcolm Brown covers topics such as the Spanish Flu, demobilisation and briefly, the literary reaction to WW1 from the official histories to the Tommy's memoirs.
I have read a fair amount of first world books over the years and Malcolm Brown is my favourite author. His commentary is both informative and accessible and he shows empathy with the ordeals faced by the soldiers and civilians of a century ago.
