Mud, Blood and Poppycock by Gordon Corrigan
The true story of how Britain won the First World War.
'Corrigan brings a mass of evidence coupled with an ability to write clear, crisp, highly readable narrative..Mud, Blood and Poppycock should be in every school library' - Correlli Barnett, DAILY MAIL'A fascinating read because he sets it up as a trial by jury. Each chapter takes a specific 'myth' of the Great War and subjects it to a test of evidence. The result - even if you want to disagree with Corrigan's overall thesis - is gripping' - George Kerevan, SCOTSMAN
The author was commissioned from the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst in 1962 and retired from the Brigade of Gurkhas in 1998. A member of the British Commission for Military History and a Fellow of the Royal Asiatic Society, he speaks fluent Nepali and is a keen horseman.
