I have wondered why no-one has written a book to cover the area around Boesinghe during the Great War, and was very pleased to see that Pen & Sword have finally released this Battleground Europe guide, so immediately placed my order with Amazon.
Upon receiving my spanking new book, I was very happy to find that Stephen McGreal has done an excellent job in chronicling the history of the fighting in the area around Boesinghe. The area is of particular interest to myself, as I'm interested in the actions of the 38th (Welsh) Division who held the line here for over twelve months at the height of the war.
I have dragged my family around the Ypres battlefields several times, and know it pretty well, but I'll certainly bring this book with me next time we visit, and I can at last locate place names associated with the occupation of the 38th (Welsh) Division during their time there, and at the Battle of the Pilckem Ridge.
A welcome addition to the Battleground Europe series, and to my bookshelf!
