NINE DAYS Adventures of a Heavy Artillery Brigade of the Third Army during the German Offensive of March 21-29 1918

NINE DAYS
Adventures of a Heavy Artillery Brigade of the Third Army during the German Offensive of March 21-29 1918

A Gunner's experiences of the opening days of Ludendorff's great offensive launched on March 21st 1918. The author was a Brigade adjutant and gives a memorable picture of the attack and its aftermath as seen by the artillery arm.

Arthur Behrend survived the Great War, and later recorded his experiences in various spheres of the conflict in several successful books - including a harrowing account of the Gallipoli campaign. This book, by contrast, is a compressed story of just nine days - but what days they were - in the chaotic aftermath of the launch of the first - and most crushing - of Ludendorff's five Spring offensives in 1918. AS adjutant of the 9oth Brigade of the Royal Garrison Artillery, Behrend was in the eye of the storm and records his experiences - and that of his gunner comrades who helped him compile the book with the aid of their own reminisences. Illustrated with photos an maps, this book gives a very clear idea of the impact of the German attack, and the orderly way in which the artillery reacted to it.
