In 1918, the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) played a critical
role in defeating the German army and thus winning the First World
War. This 'Hundred Days' campaign (August to November 1918) was the
greatest series of land victories in British military history. 1918
also saw the creation of the Royal Air Force, the world's first
independent air service, from the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal
Naval Air Service. Until recently, British histories of the First
World War have tended to concentrate on the earlier battles of 1916
and 1917 and often underplayed this vitally important
period."Changing War" fills this significant gap in our knowledge
by providing in-depth examinations of key aspects of the operations
of the British Army, the Royal Air Force and its antecedents in the
climactic year of the First World War. Written by a group of
established historians and emerging scholars it sheds light not
only on 1918, but on the revolutionary changes in warfare that took
place at that time.
