Contemporary World War One illustration of a cavalry charge by British troops in France. At the beginning of WW1 all of the combatant armies still retained substantial numbers of cavalry and there were a number of traditional cavalry actions in the opening battles of the conflict. Later, as the front lines stabilised, a combination of barbed wire, machine guns and rapid fire rifles proved deadly to mounted troops and horse cavalry units tended to be converted to infantry. By the end of the war cavalry had virtually no useful role left to play - the days of cavalry warfare had effectively been consigned to the history books. The image appeared in The War Illustrated periodical in May 1917. The artist was Stanley L Wood (1866 – 1928).

Contemporary World War One illustration of a British private engaged in hand to hand combat. It depicts the soldier fighting with Germans in a shell hole on the Ypres front in Western Flanders in 1917. He has already bayoneted one of the enemy, who lies at his feet, and is attacking another while a third is in the process of fleeing. Ypres was the centre of sustained and intense battles between the Germans and Allied forces for much of the war, including the Third Battle of Ypres (July 31 - November 6 1917, also known as the Battle of Passchendaele). The illustration, by an unknown artist, appeared in The War Illustrated periodical in October 1917.

Eventually a bold charge by the British cavalry - the Bengal Horse and the Poonah Horse - eventually put the enemy to flight. Soon afterwards Napier made his famous punning despatch to his superiors - "Peccavi"....( Latin for "I have Sinned" ) ref: 13000 from Cassells History of England-circa 1890

Contemporary World War One illustration of Australian troops capturing a German machine-gun position in an improvised fort in the French village of Pozieres. The Battle of Pozieres was a struggle for control of the strategically important village and the ridge on which it stands during the middle stages of the 1916 Battle of the Somme. British troops were engaged in most phases of the fighting but Pozieres is mainly remembered as an Australian battle. Allied forces eventually took control of the plateau north and east of the village but the cost to Australian forces was immense - more men were lost in the battle over a six-week period than in the whole Gallipoli Campaign. The sketch, entitled "House-to-House Fighting in Fortified Pozieres", appeared in The War Illustrated periodical in August 1916. The artist was Stanley L Wood (1866 – 1928).

Contemporary World War One illustration of a British soldier storming a German trench during the Battle of Loos in France in 1915. Entitled "War Illustrated Employee on the Roll of Heroes", it depicts Private F G Challoner, 6th (City of London) Battalion, London Regiment (TF), a member of staff of the Amalgamated Press, in action on September 25. Private Challoner was awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal for conspicuous gallantry after charging an enemy trench in the face of withering shell, machine gun and rifle fire and shooting or bayoneting nine Germans. His example of heroism was said to have so inspired British soldiers following him that they repeatedly charged the remaining German trenches again and again. The Battle of Loos (September 25 - October 14) was one of the major British offensives mounted on the Western Front in 1915 and marked the first time the British used poison gas (chlorine) in the conflict. The British sustained more than 60,000 casualties and the battle is also famous for witnessing the first large-scale use of new army or "Kitchener's Army" units - the initially all volunteer army recruited following the outbreak of war. The image, by artist Stanley L Wood (1866 - 1928), appeared in The War Illustrated periodical in December 1915.
