ATTACK

ATTACK: An Infantry Subaltern's Impression of July 1st, 1916 by Edward G.D Liveing is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book provides a vivid depiction of the Battle of the Somme, focusing on one infantry officer's perspective during a specific and harrowing attack on the fortified village of Gommecourt. Through personal reflections and detailed observations, the author conveys the physical and emotional challenges faced by soldiers in the trenches. The narrative follows the author as he recounts the events leading up to and during the attack on July 1, 1916. Intertwined with a sense of anticipation and dread, Liveing describes the chaotic preparations, the steely resolve of his platoon, and the brutal reality of combat as they charge into No Man's Land. As the battle unfolds, Liveing documents the harrowing toll it takes on his men and the overwhelming violence encountered from enemy machine gun fire. Beyond the physical landscape of war, the book also explores themes of fear, camaraderie, and the humanity that persists amid the destruction, painting a poignant portrait of life at the front during World War I.
