Books by David R. Woodward

A detailed study of the interaction between Lloyd George and the military authorities over the conduct of the Great War based largely on primary sources.

This study sheds light on the origins and conduct of the Somme and Passchendaele offensives, and the efforts to coordinate the Allied war effort, especially the controversial effort to subordinate Haig to General Nivelle and the creation of the Supreme War Council with its inter-allied staff.
