Summary "The Story of the Great War, Volume V (of 12)" by Reynolds, Churchill, and Miller is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century. This volume focuses on significant battles and campaigns of World War I, particularly on the Western and Eastern fronts. The text delves into the details of military strategies, troop movements, and the broader context of warfare during this tumultuous period. The opening of the volume introduces readers to the Western Front during the winter of 1914-1915, highlighting the dire conditions faced by soldiers and the preparations for a more active offensive. It details the assembly of French troops and the intense bombardment that marked the start of the Battle of Neuve Chapelle on March 10, 1915. The narrative describes how the French forces launched an artillery attack followed by infantry advances, capturing sections of German trenches amidst significant casualties, setting the stage for further military actions along the front. This opening portion sets a somber tone, emphasizing both the brutality of war and the determination of the troops involved. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
