Authors: Duncan Youel, David Edgell, Edited by Andrew Heritage, Integral DVD Film by Duncan Youel, David Edgell and Keith Lillis, (5 stars on Amazon.com)
Combining powerful recollections with dramatic archive pictures, modern terrain photography and fold-out panoramas, the book builds into a detailed narrative of the 1916 British campaign on the Somme. From the infamous First Day through to the bitter end at the Ancre almost five months later, the Pals Battalions' baptism of fire is documented through maps, diagrams and pictures from each location. The book is in two parts: Then and Now, and includes an hour-long DVD of interviews and stories from professional soldiers, historians, museum directors, battlefield tour guides and those who make their living on the Somme battlefields today
