Although covering the period January to July 1917, much of this book concentrates on the events of April - the month of the Battle of Arras, including the capture of Vimy Ridge by the Canadian Expeditionary Force and the fighting for possession of the fortified villages of Monchy le Preux and Gavrelle. It extends to include the successes of the Commonwealth Forces at Bullecourt and Messines Ridge in May and June. By the end of July, on the eve of the Third Battle of Ypres, a total of fifty. Victoria Crosses had been awarded, including many to troops from the Australian, Canadian and New Zealand Forces who fought alongside the British Army. The courage, determination and sacrifice of their generation should never be forgotten.
