WWI…
GERMAN ARMY AT PASSCHENDAELE Following the shocking reverses of April and May 1917, much soul searching had led to the urgent introduction of new tactics of flexible defense. When these in turn were found to be wanting, the psychological damage shook the German defenders badly. But, as this book demonstrates, at trench-level the individual soldier of the German Army was still capable of fighting extraordinarily hard, despite being outnumbered, outgunned and subjected to relentless, morale-sapping shelling and gas attacks. $50.00 USD

GERMAN ARMY AT CAMBRAI The narrative splits easily into two parts. First, the defensive battle 20 – 29 November, followed by the counter-attack which saw the German Army regain not only most of the ground lost in the opening phase but more besides. Detailed descriptions are given of the struggle for Flesquieres Ridge and the see-saw battles for key terrain, including Bourlon Wood, as the German Army rushed reinforcements to the sectors under attack before we witness the German offensive. $50.00 USD
