Allan Mallinson, one of Britain's most accomplished and acclaimed military historians, was commissioned by The Times as part the newspaper's ongoing marking of the centenary of the First World War, to write a series of features chronicling the progress of the war - and Britain's war in particular - month by month. Based on these much praised features, comprising 52 chapters in all, and published in anticipation of the centenary of the cessation of hostilities on 11 November 1918 - Fight to the Finish is a comprehensive and unique single volume history of the 'war to end all wars'. Characterised by contemporary references and astute military comment born of the author's extensive experience as a professional soldier, this up-to-the-minute history of Britain’s war on land, at sea and in the air from 1914-18 is both accessible and, as The Times’ centenary chronicle, definitive.
