Simon Jones's graphic history of underground warfare during the Great War uses personal reminiscences to convey the danger and suspense of this unconventional form of conflict. Concentrating on the struggle for ascendancy by the British tunnelling companies on the Western Front, Jones's wide-ranging study also tells the story of the little known but fascinating subterranean battles fought in the French sectors of the Western Front. It also includes the gripping conflict between the Austrians and the Italians in the Alps, described in English for the first time.
