Présentation de l'éditeur

In this new evaluation timed to mark the centenary of the Great War (1914-18), Colin Campbell assesses the reputation of the elite 51st Division, which alleged that German soldiers feared it more that any other British or Empire division. Engine of Destruction has been researched from battalion and brigade official war diaries and from regimental and battalion histories and blends them with first hand accounts and letters, many of which have never been published before. Colin Campbell s detailed and touching account of the war experience of the 51st Division is an amazing book in tribute to the Scottish soldier. Illustrated with original material and maps.
