The author tells the story of the second battle of Yrpes though eyewitness accounts, war diaries, reports etc. The reader is given a highly detailed account of the battle, which includes the first use of poison gas as a weapon we learn of the confusion over orders, the misunderstandings that arose and of heroism in the trenches.

I find the book to be a sad but excellent and a fascinating insight into the events into the second battle of Yrpes

Highly recommended.
