Somme Success: the Royal Flying Corps and the Battle of the Somme, 1916 by Peter Hart

The experiences of the British army on the Somme in 1916 have become a legend of endurance and sacrifice, but little has been written in recent years on the air war above the battlefield. This detailed work draws on never-before published accounts recorded by the Imperial War Museum Sound Archive in London. The conflict between fighters turned into a war of its own, with new weapons, tactics, and aircraft constantly being developed to gain the upper hand.

Peter Hart is the author of The I.R.A. and the Canada Research Chair in Irish Studies at Memorial University of Newfoundland. and Its Opponents, which won the ChristopherEwart-Biggs Memorial Award, as well as two other volumes on modern Irish history.
