The shell-ravaged landscape of Hill 60, some three miles to the south east of Ypres, conceals beneath it a labyrinth of tunnels and underground workings. This small area saw horrendous fighting in the early years of the war as the British and Germans struggled to control its dominant view over Ypres.

Both Sanctuary Wood and the village of Hodge saw intense fighting during the First World War. Nigel Cave takes the reader on an explanatory tour of the immediate area. Included is a description of the museum at Hill 62 with its trench system, stereoscopic photos and weapons.

An addition to the BATTLEGROUND EUROPE series published to coincide with the 80th anniversary of Passchendaele, which gives details of the attacks and provides a guide to the battlefield as it stands today, illustrated with maps and 'then and now' photographs.
