Historians of the First World War have often dismissed the important role of poison gas in the battles of the Western Front. In No Place to Run, however, Tim Cook shows that the serious threat of gas did not disappear with the introduction of gas masks. By 1918, gas shells were used by all armies to deluge the battlefield, and those not instructed with a sound anti-gas doctrine left themselves exposed to this new chemical plague. Cook uses fascinating primary sources - diaries, letters, reminiscences, published memoirs, and the official archival record - to illustrate the horror of gas warfare for the average trench soldier. As the first chlorine clouds rolled across the fields during the 2nd Battle of Ypres, soldiers were forced to stuff urine-soaked handkerchiefs in their mouths in order to survive. As the gas war evolved, mustard gas plagued the soldiers at the front as it lay active in mud and snow for weeks on end. There was no escape from the pervasive nature of poison gas. Entering the dug-outs, it attacked men when they were least ready. In response, the Canadian Corps had to develop an anti-gas doctrine, a process that Cook describes in full. No Place to Run provides a challenging re-examination of the function of gas warfare in the First World War, including its important role in delivering victory in the campaign of 1918 and its curious postwar legacy. It will be of interest both to historians and military buffs. | No Place To Run by Tim Cook Paperback | Indigo Chapters Books > History > Military History > World War I P10103, Tim Cook<

Historians of World War I have often dismissed the important role of poison gas in the battles of the Western Front. In this text, the author aims to demonstrate that the serious threat of gas did not disappear with the introduction of gas masks.

Using primary sources such as letters, diaries and the official archival record, Cook aims to illustrate the horror of gas warfare for the average trench soldier. In response to this threat, the Canadian Corps developed an anti-gas doctrine, a process which Cook describes in full. In all, the book poses a challenging re-examination of the function of gas warfare in World War I, including its important role in delivering victory in the campaigns of 1918 and its curious post-war legacy.
