About the book
"Victory 1918 examines the background to the Allied triumph and its aftermath ... Alan Palmer draws on cabinet papers, memoirs, official histories and diaries to look at the war from the top. He also uses letters and reminiscences from officers and men in the main battle areas to heighten the drama of neglected campaigns with almost forgotten incidents: prowling wolves around British bivouacs in the Vardar blizzard; weary troops marching towards Baghdad, to sleep where they halted; the cooks who declined the surrender of Jerusalem; sandbags stuffed with seaweed to protect the treasures of Venice"--Jacket.
