The naming of the trenches became general practice during the winter of 1914-15 and these names soon appeared on the embryonic trench maps which were produced in ever growing numbers during the later stages of the war - the British producing some 20 million large-scale maps in all. This fascinating book lists each trench name - and the names of any places, camps, localities, and installations associated with them, their significance, and how to find them with the relevant Map References.
