Hmmm, looks out of print... still, worth getting if you can find it!

I haven't got that one by Terraine (I find him a bit too Haig-apologetic).
I do have this one by Tim Travers, which sounds like it treads similar ground, but also covers the pre-war views on tactics.

The Killing Ground.

It's a very good book.
