In this collection of essays of incomparable scholarship, Stephen
Badsey explores in individual detail how the British Army fought in
the First World War, how politics and strategy affected its battles
and the decisions of senior commanders such as Douglas Haig, and
how these issues were intimately intertwined with the mass media
portrayal of the Army to itself and to the British people.
Informative, provocative, and often entertaining, based on more
than a quarter-century of research, these essays on the British
Army in the First World War range through topics from a trench raid
to modern television comedy. As a contribution to progressive
military history, "The British Army in Battle and Its Image
1914-1918" proves that the way the British Army fought and its
portrayal through the media cannot be separated. It is one of a
growing number of studies which show that, far from being in
opposition to each other, cultural history and the history of
battle must be combined for the First World War to be properly
understood. For more information visit Stephen Badsey's website
