Tells of the Second Battle of Ypres (Flanders). To be honest, there was so much information concerning regiments, brigades, companies, battalions, and troops, that it clouded what I thought should be the impetus of the book, the gassing. What was obvious was the lack of coordination between the Allied Command and the total lack of respect for human life. I was disappointed with the lack of the gas attack(s) in this book. I really wasn't interested in troop strength and movements. 247 pages
