The biography of one of NZs greatest military leaders, whose story has remained untold until now. The Forgotten General highlights the courage, intelligence, and determination of an exceptional New Zealander. MajorGeneral Sir Andrew Russell was a distinguished soldier and a dedicated leader of men. He was among the topranked divisional commanders in the British armies that fought on the Western Front in World War I. He has been described as the one military commander of genius that New Zealand produced in the 20th century. Yet little of his story is known. Born into pioneer farming stock, Russells early days were spent on sheep stations in the Hawkes Bay region; he was educated at Harrow and at the Royal Military College, Sandhurst, and later served in the British Army in India and Burma. When World War I broke out, Russell commanded the New Zealand brigade that served with distinction at Gallipoli. He was subsequently knighted and given command of the 20,000strong New Zealand Division that under his leadership became one of the finest fighting formations on the Western Front. The Forgotten General, however, is not just about a consummate military commander. It also tells the story of the men he led through four unbroken years of war, starting with the raw and inexperienced brigade that arrived on Gallipoli in May 1915 and finishing with the elite division at the spearhead of the British counteroffensive that finally ended the war on the Western Front.

The early chapters are slow, but once you get past that, the story really picks up! I appreciated the deep dive into Russell's life and military tactics. Definitely a worthwhile read once you get into it.

Great Insights but Lengthy
The book offers some great insights into General Russell's life. However, I found some sections a bit too lengthy and could have used more concise storytelling. Still, it’s a solid read for military history enthusiasts.
