Media reviews

"Overall, the authors make their case that trench warfare presented an ever changing dynamic of new ideas and experiments to break the deadlock... Recommended. General libraries, in particular, and undergraduate collections." -P.L. de Rosa, Bridgewater State College, CHOICE (April 2008)

"A remarkable collection of photographs and commentary from a variety of authors allows readers to learn about the complexities of trench design (and the theories behind construction) as well as such innovations as flame-throwers, poison gas, and tanks. Readers will also get a sense of how men managed to endue the war's unprecedented change." -Nicholas Wood, Military History Quarterly (Spring 2008)

"War on the Western Front: In the Trenches of World War I is a narrowed focus on the Western Front of the first world war and is a pick for any college-level military library strong in the era's history. Its focus is on the daily lives of soldiers: as such it provides both first-person history and survey of trench warfare and tactics which changed the strategies and nature of warfare. An excellent, well-detailed analysis." -California Bookwatch (August 2007)

"This is an interesting introduction to a complex subject, well illustrated as usual." -Bolling Smith, Coastal Defense Journal (August 2007)

"Overall, an excellent reference with a useful bibliography containing 50 titles from each combatant nation." -Barrett Tillman, War on the Western Front (August 2007)

"Throughout the book are superb photographs and illustrations to give the reader a real sense of not only what went on during these times, but how things changed over the course of the conflict... Overall it is an outstanding compilation and at a price that makes it a real bargain to the reader. I found it a fascinating read and can highly recommend this one to you." -Scott Van Aken, modelingmadness.com (July 2007)
