He s erved as one of five official British reporters during the First World War . The Author’s Note advises "In this book I have put together the dispatches I wrote on the Western Front from November 1917 to that month in 1918, when hostilities ceased with the Armistice…. In book form it may have this value – that it contains many facts and impressions gathered by an eyewitness in the fields and roads of war which would escape the historian writing from documentary evidence or after a lapse of years". Open Warfare is the third volume in the series Philip Gibb’s History of the War , the other volumes being firstly, The Battles of the Somme and secondly, From Bapaume to Passchendaele .
