Leadership in the trenches

This book explores the relationship between the regimental officer and the ordinary soldier during World War I to uncover why, in spite of appalling conditions in the trenches of the Western Front, the British army was almost untouched by major mutiny.

First sentence: The social composition of the prewar Regular army had a major impact on the nature of the officer-man relationship.
