Issued in January 1918, this volume consists of the two parts - Tactical and Organisation and Direction of Fire - of the Army General Staff s official doctrines on the use of machine guns. By this stage of the Great War, the implications of the slaughter inflicted by enemy machine guns at the Somme in 1916 and at Passchendaele in 1917 had percolated through to the BEF s High Command, who were now matching German tactics in employing this fearsome weapon. In Part One there are Chapters on employing machine guns in defensive and offensive roles; use of the guns in woods, villages and towns; organising the defence of captured positions; improvisation and how to employ the guns in open ground. There is also an A-Z of machine guns, from co-operation with artillery to wire and woods. Part II has sections on maps, contours, scales, traversing, overhead fire, night firing and barrage fire among others. This is a complete guide to the British Army s use of machine guns in the final stages of the Great War and is essential reading.

'Gentleman, we may not make history tomorrow, but we shall certainly change the geography.' So said General Plumer the day before 600 tons of explosives were detonated under the German position on Messines Ridge. The explosion was heard by Lloyd George in Downing Street, and as far away as Dublin. Until 1918, Messines was the only clear cut Allied victory on the Western Front, coming at a time when Britain and her allies needed it most: boosting Allied morale and shattering that of the Germans. Precisely orchestrated, Messines was the first true all-arms modern battle which brought together artillery, engineers, infantry, tanks, aircraft and administrative units from a commonwealth of nations to defeat the common enemy. So why is its name not as familiar as the Somme, Passchendaele or Verdun? This book examines the battle for the Messines-Wytschaete Ridge from the British, ANZAC and German perspectives. Illustrated with archive photographs and maps, it is a major contribution to our understanding of one of the seminal battles of the First World War.

The 'War Office Publications (WWI)' series are reproductions from a number of contemporary manuals and books covering First World War doctrine. These documents provide an insight into the daily lives of soldiers, as well as details of how the conflict was fought. They also help to dispel the myth that the First World War was fought on a basis of tactical and organisational mismanagement.
