Understanding the Battle of the Somme

Video Description

Have you heard of the battle of the Somme? But, not sure exactly how it unfolded? So, in a new concept for this channel, and with the idea to make complex historical events clear, but without dumbing them down, we’ll fly through that infamous First World War campaign which to many has come to symbolise the tragedy, slaughter and futility of the First World War. But is it exactly as it seems? Creating these videos is a lot of work, and it would not be possible without your support.
