Excerpt from The British Campaign in France and Flanders: July to November, 1918 This constant addition to the Allied forces, with the cams. Moral confidence which they brought with them, was L the third contributory cause to the sudden change of fortune. It would be ungenerous, however, not to m add that a fourth, without which all others might have been vain, lay in the commanding personality and extraordinary genius of the great Frenchman who now controlled the whole Allied battle front from the sea to the Alps, while two great civilians, Lloyd George and Clemenceau, rallied the home fronts of the two weary nations which had home the brunt of the war.

Excerpt from The British Campaign in France and Flanders: January to July 1918 This fifth volume deals with one of the most tremendous episodes in history, when the vigour of the German attack and the desperate resistance of the British both on the Somme and in Flanders, held an awestruck world in suspense. A million men released from the Russian front, rolled across Europe and, swelling that great tide which was already banked up before the British breakwater, it washed over all the front line barriers and threatened at one time to sweep down to the sea. The account of how the British Army, upon which incomparably the greater pressure fell, rose to the occasion and first slowed and then held the terrific flood is one of the most wonderful Of military epics. At the same time every credit must be given to the loyalty of the French commanders who, while guarding their own extended lines, endeavoured to spare all possible help to their hard-pressed Allies. This volume carries the story of the German attack to its close. The next and final one will describe the enormous counter-attack of the Allies leading up to their final victory.

A million men released from the Russian front, rolled across Europe and, swelling that great tide which was already banked up before the British breakwater, it washed over all the front line barriers and threatened at one time to sweep down to the sea. The account of how the British Army, upon which incomparably the greater pressure fell, rose to the occasion and first slowed and then held the terrific flood is one of the most wonderful of military epics.

This volume carries the story of the German attack to its close. The next and final one will describe the enormous counter-attack of the Allies leading up to their final victory.The Chronicler has been faced by many obstacles in endeavouring to preserve both accuracy and historical proportion while writing contemporary history. He would gratefully acknowledge that his critics in the press have shown a kindly indulgence, which arises, no doubt, from an appreciation of these difficulties. There has, however, been one conspicuous exception to which he would desire to call attention, since a large question of literary etiquette is involved. From the beginning a series of unflattering and anonymous articles have appeared in The Times Literary Supplement, commenting adversely upon each volume in turn, and picking out the pettiest details for animadversion. Upon enquiry, these articles-in whole or part-are admitted to have been written by the Hon. J. W. Fortescue, who is himself the official historian of the War. On being remonstrated with, this gentleman could not be brought to see that it is not fitting that he should make anonymous attacks, however bonâ fide, upon a brother author who is working upon the same subject and is therefore in the involuntary position of being a humble rival.

As well as writing the Sherlock Holmes stories, historical novels and fantasy fiction, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was intensely interested in military operations and wrote multi-volume histories of both the Boer War and the Great War - in which his only son Kingsley served ( dying of the Spanish 'flu). This volume covers 1917. a year of difficulty and disaster for the Allies, which saw Russia leave the war and America enter it. On the western front, Doyle covers the battles of Arras, the victory at Messines and the appalling 3rd Ypres ( Passchendaele) and Cambrai when the brunt of the burden fell on Britain following the French army mutinies after they were bled white at Verdun and the bungled Chemin des Dames offensive on the Aisne. Doyle concentrates on the front line fighting with frequent mention of the formations and units engaged, useful maps, and casualty figures,
