Trade ReviewSubtle and intelligent * DAILY TELEGRAPH *
It is difficult to understate the importance of this book to our understanding of the Western Front in the First World War ... Exploiting both archival and published German-language material, Professor Duffy has produced a richly detailed, scholarly and immensely readable study of a vital but neglected subject ... THROUGH GERMAN EYES shows Christopher Duffy, one of the world's leading military historians, at the very top of his form. Every subsequent historian of the First World War will be forced to take account of his conclusions * BRITISH ARMY REVIEW *
Duffy's book is crisply written and an easy read * SCOTSMAN *
Not another comprehensive history of the Battle of the Somme, but a look at it from the German point of view * BELFAST TELEGRAPH *
Christopher Duffy's subtle and intelligent book... is a refreshing addition to the literature of the Western Front experience -- Patrick Bishop
