Seller's Description:
Like New. Size: 5x0x8; Softcover. Good binding and cover. Clean, unmarked pages. Boom Ravine was, and still is, a gouge in the landscape where, in February 1917, fierce fighting took place to rival that at Beaumont Hamel. It was an action of short duration and proved to be a disaster for the British. This is the account of what took place in the region after the great battles of 1916 had ended and before the Germans withdrew to the Hindenburg Line. Also included is a survey of the area on 1 July, behind the German lines.
