... The book contains much of significance and interest--Soldiers of the Queen variety is my thing and I want to learn as much as I can about a range of military history that sets the scene for the world I live in. This is the sort of book to do just that. It is brilliant.' --War History Online 'This well rounded title is a truly academic study, but do not be put off as it flows wonderfully and the arguments well presented. ... The gauntlet has been thrown down, and we await the coming debate with eagerness.'--Britain at War ... A highly impressive collection of essays. As Brian Bond observes in his foreword, it is hugely reassuring to see the arrival of the new generation military historians of 'proven ability and admirable dedication'. --British Journal for Military History ... a deeply analytical view of a sometimes passed over year of the First World War... --Newsletter of the Society of Friends of the National Army Museum ... This is another highly valuable work of evaluation, analysis and historical judgment... --Stand To! The Journal of the Western Front Association Both Spencer Jones, the editor, and Duncan Rogers of Helion must be commended for providing a superb volume in which these writers can display their talents. --British Journal for Military History An important and very welcome addition to the historiography of the First World War. 1915 was a year of learning lessons and refining techniques on and off the battlefield, which this volume captures perfectly. --Journal of the Society for Army Historical Research
