Description

Explore a new perspective on First World War leadership with British Generalship during the Great War. This Routledge study follows the military career of Sir Henry Horne (1861-1929), a general who is often overlooked in traditional histories. This book challenges the idea that the Great War was merely a senseless bloodbath led by incompetent commanders. Instead, it examines how leaders like Horne developed new tactics and techniques to solve the unique problems presented by trench warfare. By analyzing the transition from the struggles of 1915-16 to the successes of 1917-18, this work explains how British military performance changed so significantly over the course of the conflict. Ideal for readers interested in military biography and British history, this text provides a detailed look at the evolution of command and the strategic shifts that defined the era. It offers a necessary re-evaluation of the British generals and their roles in the changing landscape of modern warfare.
