"Military collections will find this specific and key." -- The Midwest Book Review "In this book on the trench, author Stephen Bull relies on four previous Osprey editions to help provide not only some material, but also images and artwork to help illustrate this volume. But this isn't just a rehash of those previous works as most of what is written is new to this volume . It is a truly engrossing book that pulls in the reader with its narrative and personal stories." -- Scott Van Aken, Modeling Madness "If the Great War centenary inspires new projects by any TS&MF readers, I highly recommend Dr. Stephen Bull's new book as a great reference. Trench: A History of Trench Warfare on the Western Front is a 272-page paperback packed with well-written information, photos in both color and black and white, and maps. Bull lays out the big picture while providing telling insights from the individual soldier's-eye-view of the scarred landscape.
This terrific book is a moving reminder of why WWI was one of the most apocalyptic chapters in the history of mankind." -- Toy Soldier and Model Figure "Military collections will find this specific and key." -- The Midwest Book Review "In this book on the trench, author Stephen Bull relies on four previous Osprey editions to help provide not only some material, but also images and artwork to help illustrate this volume.
