{ "item_title" : "Fighting In Flanders", "item_author" : [" E. Alexander Powell "], "item_description" : "Fighting in Flanders is a book written by E. Alexander Powell, which provides a detailed account of the First World War battles fought in Flanders, Belgium. The book covers the period between 1914 and 1918, during which the German army launched a series of offensives against the Allied forces, resulting in some of the bloodiest battles in the history of warfare. Powell's narrative is based on his personal experiences as a war correspondent, and he provides a vivid description of the horrors of trench warfare, the use of gas attacks, and the impact of artillery bombardments. The book is a comprehensive account of the battles fought in Flanders, including the Battle of Ypres, the Battle of Passchendaele, and the Battle of the Lys. It also covers the tactics and strategies employed by both sides, as well as the role played by key military leaders. Fighting in Flanders is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the First World War, and provides a unique perspective on one of the most significant conflicts of the 20th century.In writing of the battles in Belgium I find myself at a loss as to what names to give them. After the treaty-makers have affixed their signatures to a piece of parchment and the arm-chair historians have settled down to the task of writing a connected account of the campaign, the various engagements will doubtless be properly classified and labelled--and under the names which they will receive in the histories we, who were present at them, will probably not recognize them at all.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/16/266/273/1162662735_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "20.95", "online_price" : "20.95", "our_price" : "20.95", "club_price" : "20.95", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
