In April 1917 the high ground of Monchy le Preux anchored the German defensive positions on Vimy Ridge, just east of Arras. A British offensive planned for Easter Monday 1917 was hindered by not stopped by an unexpected Spring snowstorm. Monchy was defended by the 3rd Bavarian Division and cleverly concealed artillery. While the main British offensive failed, and a supporting French offensive further south was a complete disaster, Monchy was captured after a fierce battle. The final German defenders were driven out, rather unusually for the time, by a British cavalry charge.Monchy was eventually recaptured and the war went on. Today Monchy is much as it was in 1917 and its British, Canadian and Australian memorials receive many visitors. The region as it is today and the tragic events of 1917 and 1918 are covered with all the detail associated with the Battleground Europe series.

The future comes, and businesses die.

If you're leading teams through change and you want to bring about the right motivational dynamics to influence behaviour, drive progress and shape culture ... this is the book for you.
Jason Fox served with the SBS for over a decade, thriving on the close bonds of the Special Forces brotherhood and the 'death or glory' nature of their missions. Casualty of War tells the story of his career as an elite operator, from the gunfights, hostage rescues, daring escapes and heroic endeavours that defined his service, to a battle of a very different kind- the psychological devastation of combat that forced him to leave the military, and the hard reality of what takes place in the mind of a man once a career of imagined invincibility has come to an end.
