The Campaign Chronicles series all give an excellent succinct history of some of the key, and often complex battles on the Western Front. This edition on the vast subject at hand of  Passchendaele is no exception. The series presents the battles in structured detail, with the views of Commanders inter locked with events as they happened.  Consequently, the reader is presented with an excellent book to consult for an initial overview of the battle, before then digging deeper to other texts to obtain further detail and various perspectives on the battle itself.

Evans does a fine job of creating an unbiased account of the battle and putting it into the overall context of World War One. This is no mean feat.
