520    The Battle of the Somme is one of the most famous, and 
       earliest, films of war ever made. The film records the 
       most disastrous day in the history of the British army - 1
       July 1916 - and it had a huge impact when it was shown in 
       Britain during the war. Since then images from it have 
       been repeated so often in books and documentaries that it 
       has profoundly influenced our view of the battle and of 
       the Great War itself. Yet this book is the first in-depth 
       study of this historic film, and it is the first to relate
       it to the surviving battleground of the Somme.The authors 
       explore the film and its history in fascinating detail. 
       They investigate how much of it was faked and consider how
       much credit for it should go to Geoffrey Malins and how 
       much to John MacDowell. And they use modern photographs of
       the locations to give us a telling insight into the 
       landscape of the battle and into the way in which this 
       pioneering film was created.Their analysis of scenes in 
       the film tells us so much about the way the British army 
       operated in June and July 1916 - how the troops were 
       dressed and equipped, how they were armed and how their 
       weapons were used. In some cases it is even possible to 
       discover what they were saying. This painstaking exercise 
       in historical reconstruction will be compelling reading 
       for everyone who is interested in the Great War and the 
       Battle of the Somme. [Elib]
