The British began 1918 defeated and demoralised: in the previous six months they had lost a quarter of a million men, and now they faced crushing defeat. In under a year, however, they had transformed potential disaster into total victory and peace.

Gregory Blaxland charts the fate of the crucial and strategic city of Amiens - the fulcrum of the Allied line - through the year in which the tide turned against the Germans.

He traces the sequence of the decisive events, from Ludendorff's spring offensive to the Allies' counter-attack, which led swiftly to the Armistice.

"Amiens 1918" tells the story of a town and a year that changed the course of the war - and the course of world history.
