Subject: RE: WWI, was No-Man's Land
Sorry but I can't be arsed to go back through Keith's comments to pull out the numerous occasions when he's said (in various ways) that historians writing in the early and middle 20th century were either ill advised, ill informed, had their own political agenda or were just plain wrong.

Arsed or not, you won't find such bollocks.

I do not dismiss historians because they are dead, but current historians dismiss those previous ones who promulgated what are now known to be myths.

I have not dismissed anyone for being left wing, only for being extremist political activists, left or right.
