A 1915 manual on trench attack and defence

Published in February 1915, this military manual examines offensive action in trench warfare through practical examples of close-quarter and local methods, including German attacks. Its central concerns are preparation and coordination between artillery and infantry, alongside the distinction it draws between capturing trenches and holding them. Two tactical plates accompany the text, giving the publication a visual element as well as its written discussion. The book offers a focused historical document on how trench warfare and its operational challenges were presented in an official publication of the period.

Good fit for readers who enjoy
