Fromelles - one of the bloodiest battlefields of the Great War
Expected to be a diversion from the Somme, Fromelles was one of the most horrific and futile battles of the First World War. In one night, British and Australian soldiers suffered casualties equivalent to the total toll of the Boer War, Korean War and Vietnam War combined. It was an unmitigated military disaster.
In his revelatory and ground-breaking new book, Peter Barton describes Fromelles' long and surprising genesis, and offers an unexpected account of the fighting; he investigates the interrogation of Anglo-Australian prisoners, and the results of shrewd German propaganda techniques; and explores the circumstances surrounding the 'missing' Pheasant Wood graves.
The Lost Legions of Fromelles is the most authoritative book on this staggering catastrophe, combining new scholarship on the battle with an account of recent events to dispel many myths in this rich and compelling history.
