In August 1917, the Canadian Corps captured Hill 70, a vital piece of ground just north of the French industrial town of Lens. The Canadians suffered some 5,400 casualties and defeated three days of determined German counter attacks. This spectacularly successful but shockingly costly battle was as innovative as Vimy, yet only a handful of Canadians have heard of it or of subsequent attempts to capture Lens, which resulted in nearly 3,300 more casualties. In Capturing Hill 70, leading military historians mark the centenary of this triumph by dissecting different facets of the battle, from planning and the conduct of operations to long-term repercussions and commemoration. This richly illustrated and thought-provoking book reinstates Hill 70 to its rightful place among the pantheon of battles that helped forge the reputation of the famed Canadian Corps during the First World War, and it sheds new light on the key role played by Lieutenant-General Sir Arthur Currie, who fought his first major action as commander of the Canadian Corps.

This is an important new study examining the military operations of the British Expeditionary Force in 1914–18 through the lens of its communications system. Brian Hall charts how new communications technology such as wireless, telephone and telegraph were used alongside visual signalling, carrier pigeons and runners as the British army struggled to develop a communication system adequate enough to wage modern warfare. He reveals how tenuous communications added to the difficulties of command and control during the war's early years, and examines their role during the major battles of the Somme, Arras, Ypres and Cambrai. It was only in 1918 that the British army would finally develop a flexible and sophisticated communications system capable of effectively coordinating infantry, artillery, tanks and aeroplanes. This is a major contribution to our understanding of British military operations during the First World War, the learning processes of armies and the revolution in military affairs.

Herbert Gwynne Howell was born and bred in Wales, but came to South Africa as a young man and joined the Cape Mounted Riflemen (C.M.R.), one of the finest corps of horseman of its time. During the Anglo-Boer War (1899-1902) the C.M.R. formed part of the Colonial Division and Gwynne Howell saw action in the North-Eastern Cape at the siege of Jammerberg Drift near Wepener. He also took part in the first De Wet hunt. While still a gunner, Gwynne Howell attracted the attention of his superiors and was offered a commission in the Royal Field Artillery (R.F.A.). As a member of the 78th Battery R.F.A. he spent the greater part of the guerrilla war in the Western Transvaal, doing garrison and convoy duty or pursuing Boer commandos.
