Sir Douglas Haig's Despatches
Sir Douglas Haig's Despatches, edited by J.H. Boraston and framed by John Terraine’s notes, gathers the wartime reports of Britain’s Western Front commander into one 1979 illustrated hardback. Military historians prize the volume for its unfiltered glimpse inside 1916-18 strategy and for Terraine’s crisp context on each dispatch.
This J.M. Dent edition arrives in good vintage condition: a bright dust-jacket protected by an archival cover, pages clean and unmarked, binding tight. Only a small bookseller sticker on the front inner board and a faint edge mark betray its forty-five years on the shelf.
Collectors of World War I memoirs, biography, or British military history will find the book both shelf-worthy and readable, free of smoke, notes, or dog-ears. The 371-page narrative suits young-adult researchers and adult enthusiasts alike, pairing official communiqués with period maps and photographs for a rounded portrait of Haig’s controversial command.
