The German Spring Offensives of 1918
In this presentation, Dr Jonathan Boff talks about the German spring offensives of 1918 and the following summer counter-offensive by the allied forces that led to the ending of the First World War. He will also look at the strategic and operational errors made by the German high command.
Jonathan analyses the British Army on the western front and describes how - for the first and last time in its history - it took a leading role in defeating the 'main enemy in the primary theatre of operations'.
