    5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent small book on one of the few outright successes of the Somme campaign.

    Bazentin was the part of the Somme campaign that everyone forgets - an entirely successful surprise attack at dawn after a brief hurricane bombardment. So successful that the British broke through but hadn't really planned what came next, thus squandering an opportunity to exploit their success.
    This attack provided the blueprint for later successful attacks on the Western Front -for both sides.
    A recommended read for anyone with an interest in the Western Front.

    Great book - just what I needed to read about before my visit to the Somme and the area where my great grandfather was killed. Informative and some good photos and maps

    5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Contribution to the Pen and Sword Somme Series
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 6, 2003

    The battle of Bazentin Ridge was important for a number of reasons. It was the first night attack allowing British troops to establish a foothold on the strategically important Bazentin Ridge. Second, it allowed the Australian allies to punch a way through the Pozieres Ridge a few miles on the left flank. However, the Somme battle stagnated from this point, and it was to be two months before the Allied line was able to advance further. Overall, this is an excellent book explaining the events which occurred along the Bazentin Ridge between the dates 14th and 20th July 1916. Contains some very good maps and illustrations. At the end of the book is a worthwhile tour guide for first time and regular visitors alike.
