John Buchan (1875-1940) was a Scottish novelist and historian and also served as Canada's Governor General. With the outbreak of the First World War, Buchan worked as a correspondent in France for The Times. The Battle of the Somme, also known as the Somme Offensive, was a battle of the First World War fought by the armies of the British and French empires against the German Empire. It took place between 1 July and 18 November 1916 on both sides of the River Somme in France. It was one of the largest battles of World War I, in which more than 1,000,000 men were wounded or killed, making it one of the bloodiest battles in human history. The battle is notable for the importance of air power and the first use of the tank. At the end of the battle, British and French forces had penetrated 6 miles (9.7 km) into German-occupied territory, taking more ground than any offensive since the Battle of the Marne in 1914.

Book excerpt: The remarkable new book presents a detailed chronicle of the battle, day by day, unit by unit. This fascinating book is a significant new approach to the conflict of 1916 and a practical guide for anyone wishing to see and understand how the battle evolved. The day-by-day layout is illustrated by a fine section of photographs, many previously unpublished and all carefully linked to show specific details of each month's fighting. Equally important are the 50 maps illustrating trench names, fortresses and strong-points, jumping-off points, objectives and gains made. For the first time it is possible to read about the progress of a specific British brigade through reserve trenches, front-lines, no-man's-land and captured enemy positions and to trace that unit on comprehensive maps.

The author thus explains the object of the great drive, about which there exists a considerable amount of misconception: It was not to recover so many square miles of France; it was not to take Bapaume or Peronne or St. Quentin; it was not even in the strict sense to carry this or that position. All these things were subsidiary, and would follow in due course, provided the main purpose succeeded. That purpose was simply to exercise a steady and continued pressure in a certain section of the en emy's front.
