Ghosts on the Somme. Filming the Battle. June, July 1916

This book is the first in-depth study of the historic film which Geoffrey Malins shot at the time, and also the first to relate the film to the surviving battleground of the Somme. This is a serious and effective modern study of the film. The book is crammed with images and (very good) maps which will help our understanding of the original film. It follows that this book should be considered at the same time as Malin's own story this is also in the Collection).
