Aspects of War: Trench Warfare

This book is a very good overview of trench warfare in the first world war. It provides adequate and clear text along with many photographs, maps, layout drawings and more. The photograph selections are perfect for the text they accompany. The book is organized into how the war began, the nations and soldiers involved, description of the strategies of the combatant nations, life in the trenches, weapons and equipment used, the stalemate that ensued and the battle progress measured in feet. A great book for a quick overview and sense of being there.
