Somme by Alex Churchill
The Battle of the Somme was one of the costliest campaigns of the First World War, with tens of thousands of casualties on both sides, drawn from all corners of the world. To describe each day of the battle, 141 fallen casualties have been chosen and through their eyes the full scope of the horror of the Somme emerges. The poignancy of their personal tragedies reminds us of the great sacrifices made by ordinary men in this war to end all wars.
ALEXANDRA CHURCHILL is a researcher and historian who has contributed to and appeared in numerous television documentaries, including Timewatch (BBC2), Fighting the Red Baron (Channel 4) Titanic with Len Goodman (BBC1) and The Big Dig (Channel 5).
