A joint operation between Britain & France in 1916, the Battle of the Somme was an attempt to gain territory & dent Germanys military strength. By the end of the action, very little ground had been won: the Allied Forces had made just 12km. For this slight gain, a more than a million lives were lost. There were more than 400, 000 British, 200, 000 French, & 500, 000 German causalities during the fighting. Twelve Days on the Somme is a memoir of the last spell of front-line duty performed by the 2nd Battalion of the West Yorkshire Regiment. Written by Sidney Rogerson, a young officer in B Company, it gives an extraordinarily frank & often moving account of what it was really like to fight through one of most notorious battles of the First World War. Its special message, however, is that, contrary to received assumptions, men could face up to the terrible ordeal such a battle presented with resilience, good humour & without loss of morale. This is a classic work whose reprinting is long overdue. ...

To the uninitiated, tango is just a dance, albeit a dance with an exotic & sensuous allure. To the true tanguero, it is something akin to a religion, attracting the lost, the lonely, & the fanatical with its formal rituals, its sense of belonging, & its intense emotions. Kapka Kassabova first set foot in a tango studio ten years ago &, from that moment, she was hooked. With the pulse of tango thruming through her body & the music filling in her head, she's danced through the night, from Auckland to Edinburgh, from Berlin to Buenos Aires, suffering blisters & heart-break, as well as forging lasting friendships & experiencing all-too-brief moments of dance-floor ecstasy. Here Kapka takes us inside the esoteric night-time world of tango, to tell the story of the dance from its afro roots to its sequined apotheosis in 'show tango', exploring its cultural & emotional pull & enticing us to join her at the milonga. ...
