The author visits many of the locations in that book, but does bring a far fresher perspective to the locations photographing them from more imaginative angles and in more dramatic lighting.
The section on the cemeteries is particularly moving, so many young men, but beautifully tended by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.
A great book for anyone's World War 1 library and a valuable addition to the history of a curiously neglected battle.
