Légende

'The Way to Passchendaele', First World War, 1917, (c1920). '...typical view across the battle-field over which our troops had to advance in the autumn of 1917'. Heavy rain and mud made conditions extremely difficult during the Third Battle of Ypres, also known as the Battle of Passchendaele, which took place on the Belgian Western Front from July to November 1917. It was fought between the British, Belgian and French armies against the Germans, and resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of men. From "The Great World War: A History", Volume VII, edited by Frank A Mumby. [The Gresham Publishing Company Ltd, London, c1920]
