Excerpt from The Battle of Somme Roman highroads are the chief landmarks. At the lift of country between Somme and Ancre copses patch the Slopes, and sometimes a church spire is seen above the trees from some woodland hamlet. The Somme winds in a broad valley between chalk bluffs, faithfully dogged by a canal - a curious river which strains, like the Oxus, through matted rushy isles, and is sometimes a lake and sometimes an expanse of swamp. The Ancre is such a stream as may be found in Wiltshire, with good trout in its pools. On a hot midsummer day the slopes are ablaze with yellow mustard, red poppies, and blue cornflowers; and to one coming from the lush flats of Flanders, or the black country of the Pas de Calais, or the dreary levels of Champagne, or the strange melancholy Verdun hills, this land wears a habitable and cheerful air, as if remote from the Oppression of war.

Excerpt from The Battles of the Somme In this book I have put together the articles which I have written day by day for more than three months, since that first day of July, 1916, when hundreds of thousands of British troops rose out of the ditches held against the enemy for nearly two years of trench warfare, advanced over open country upon the most formidable system of defences ever organised by great armies, and began a series of battles as fierce and bloody as anything the old earth has seen on such a stretch of ground since the beginning of human strife. Before July I I had an idea of writing a book about all that I had seen for nearly eighteen months, since I abandoned the hazardous game of a free lance in the war-zones of France and Belgium (to me those were the great and wonderful days) and became officially accredited as a correspondent with the British armies in the field. I had seen a good deal in the trenches and behind the lines - nearly all there was to see - of stationary warfare from Ypres to the Somme, and enough to understand with every nerve in my body not only the abomination of this doom which put fine sensitive men into dirty mudholes and sinister ruins, in exile from the comforts and beauty and decency of life, under the continual menace of death or mutilation, but also the valour of great numbers of simple souls who hated it all and yet endured it with a queer gaiety, and laughed even while they cursed its beastliness, and resigned themselves to its worst miseries like Christian martyrs with a taste for beer and the pictures of the "vie parisienne."

Excerpt from The Battle of the Somme I have been asked to write a few words of preface to this little book While I was in France, in the late summer and autumn of 1916, it was suggested that I should write a History of the Battle of the Somme, then in its second stage or act. In discussing the plan of the book, it was decided that I should begin with some account of the attacks upon Verdun (which the Battle of the Somme ended), and end with the taking of Bapaume, then hoped for, but not expected to happen at once. In order that I might write with full knowledge, some arrangements were planned, by which I could go again to Verdun, to visit some positions which I had not seen. It was made possible for me to go to the Somme, certain introductions were given to me, and I was formally requested to write the History. After some delay, I was permitted to go again to the Somme battlefield, and to live on or near it for those months of 1917 when our Armies were advancing in all that area.

Excerpt from The Somme, Vol. 1: The First Battle of the Somme, 1916 1917; Albert, Bapaume, Peronne The objectives of the franco-british offensive were, to regam the initiative of the military operations; to relieve Verdun: to immobilise the largest possible number of German divisions on the western front, and prevent their transfer to other sectors to wear down the fighting strength of the numerous enemy divisions which would be brought up to the front of attack. Thanks to the immense effort made by the entire British Empire, their army had considerably increased in men and material, and was now in a position to undertake a powerful Offensive.

Excerpt from When the Somme Ran Red This line was chosen with the greatest possible Skill. It followed the series of ridges and hills and thus gave command of the country to the west; in other words, any attack against the Ger mans would have to be made uphill, always a difficult undertaking. Besides the natural strength of the position the line was made still more secure by the employment of every device known to military science, SO that it was re garded as an almost impregnable system of trenches. This then was the line we were to at tack in July, 1916, largely with the idea of relieving the pressure that was being exerted against Verdun.
