Description

Why did the British army avoid major mutiny despite horrific trench warfare on the Western Front during the First World War? This comprehensive study by G. D. Sheffield examines the critical relationship between regimental officers and ordinary soldiers that sustained morale when conditions were appalling. Drawing on extensive archival sources, including previously unpublished documents, the book reveals how officer-man relations became the overlooked foundation of military discipline and cohesion throughout the war. Sheffield's research demonstrates that understanding these personal dynamics between ranks offers essential insight into how the British army maintained its fighting capacity under extreme duress. Part of the Studies in Military and Strategic History series published by Palgrave Macmillan, this work fills a significant gap in First World War military history by centring the human element of leadership that kept soldiers committed to duty despite the horrors of trench combat.
