Haig's Intelligence is an important new study of Douglas Haig's
controversial command during the First World War. Based on
extensive new research, it addresses a perennial question about the
British army on the Western Front between 1916 and 1918: why did
they think they were winning? Jim Beach reveals how the British
perceived the German army through a study of the development of the
British intelligence system, its personnel and the ways in which
intelligence was gathered. He also examines how intelligence shaped
strategy and operations by exploring the influence of intelligence
in creating perceptions of the enemy. He shows for the first time
exactly what the British knew about their opponent, when and how
and, in so doing, sheds significant new light on continuing
controversies about the British army's conduct of operations in
France and Belgium and the relationship between Haig and his chief
intelligence officer, John Charteris.
