"A walk round Plugstreet highlights the multitude of little-known actions, places of interest and the activities of the men who served in this area during the Great War. Although much has been written of Plugstreet's links with Bruce Bairnsfather's 'Old Bill' and its position on the southern edge of the Messines Ridge, little has been documented of its importance during the early- and mid-stages of the war. This book helps to remedy this and brings to life an area of the Western Front in which most regiments of the British and Commonwealth armies saw service"--Page 4 of cover.
