Description

Guillemont Road and the nearby Trones Wood were among the British objectives of the great assault of July 1, 1916. Cemeteries and monuments to large units are nearby, but Guillemont also provides many examples of personal tragedy, such as the deaths of the eldest son of Britain's wartime prime minister and the grandson of Charles Dickens.

Author Biography:

Michael Stedman was born in Salford in 1949 and graduated from the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne after which he became a school teacher in Manchester for 24 years. During the 1980's his first book, The Salford Pals, was published, followed in the early 1990's by The Manchester Pals. He moved to Worcester in 1994, subsequently devoting his time to many projects most of which centre on the Great War's history. Since 1995 he has written numerous books on the history of the Great War including, Thiepval, La Boisselle, Fricourt, Guillemont and Advance to Victory in the Battleground Europe Series as well as Great Battles of the Great War which accompanied a Tyne Tees / ITV series of the same name.
