The Taking of Landrecies, (1919). Creator: Richard Caton Woodville II
The Taking of Landrecies, (1919). Scene from the First World War: British troops took the French town of Landrecies in August 1914. The villages along the banks of the Aisne, the Marne, and the Meuse were practically taken at the point of the bayonet; every house was a fort, and there was much fierce and desperate fighting, and hand-to-hand encounters. In the taking of Landrecies the Grenadier Guards added yet another name to their glorious record. From " The History of the Great European War: its causes and effects", Vol. III, by W. Stanley Macbean Knight. [Caxton Pulishing Company, Limited, London, 1919]
