Somme 1916 Pack
Britain has never experienced anything like the Battle of the Somme, before or since. Was it justified? Hear from the historians, the survivors and those who died. Make up your own mind. Where 300,000 lie dead, where do you stand?
This Somme 1916 Pack contains primary and secondary materials exploring aspects of the Battle. Its focus is the experiences on the 2nd Middlesex and the 2nd Bedfordshires on the infamous first day. The pack has everything you need to run activities relating to the Somme, including facsimiles, contextual and reference material, and a complete lesson plan for teachers - all of which can also be found on the included cd-rom.
