Summary "The British Campaign in France and Flanders, 1917" by Arthur Conan Doyle is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume is the fourth in a series that details the experiences of British forces during World War I, particularly focusing on the significant military engagements of 1917, including the battle of Cambrai. The text provides an in-depth analysis of the operations, strategies, and experiences of the soldiers involved, making it a fascinating read for those interested in military history and the Great War. At the start of the narrative, Conan Doyle sets the stage for the events of 1917, detailing the aftermath of the previous year and the pivotal transitions that occurred in the British military strategy. The text describes the increase in the number of British divisions and preparations for the upcoming offensives. The significance of the German retreat in early 1917 is highlighted, along with the methodical steps taken by the British forces to capitalize on this shift. Key military actions, including troop movements and early victories, are noted, painting a complex picture of warfare that combines strategy, leadership, and the grim realities faced by soldiers in the trenches.
