  While best known as being the scene of the most terrible carnage in the WW1, the French department of the Somme has seen many other battles from Roman times to 1944. This work guides us to the cemeteries, memorials and battlefields of the area, with the emphasis on the fighting of 1916 and 1918, with descriptions and anecdotes.
