 William Howard Russell's The War is a collection of 22 months of dispatches from the author, an embedded reporter sent to Crimea with the Anglo-French expedition in 1853. In it you will find familiar-sounding accounts of Our Heroes in Blue Red, unreliable allies and feckless locals, supply delays, and, well--just read it.

William Philpott's Three Armies on the Somme is a drat fine account of how and why trench stuff, like Shattered Sword taking a lot of time out for mythbusting.
