| Description: |
Using the battle of Neuve Chapelle on the Western Front and the August offensive at Gallipoli as case studies, this examines the British approach to offensive warfare in 1915, with a particular emphasis on the role that artillery was meant to perform, and to what extent the artillery factored into operational planning. It also briefly touches on how artillery was used in each of the three main sectors during the August offensive: Cape Helles, Anzac and Suvla Bay. |
