The Chaos that was rife in the Russian Empire continued to escalate as the authorities grappled with the sudden halt to the authoritarian monarchy that had been part of Russian life for almost two centuries. Meanwhile in France, the army launched their own mutiny against the commanders following costly mistakes and battles, awful living conditions on the Front and war weariness. April and May 1917 also saw more and more countries across the world sucked into War and diplomatic strife. After two years of war, the signs of changes to the established world order were beginning to show. This ninth book in the First World War Roll of Honour series covers the casualties attributable directly to the War (including those killed in action, died of wounds, illness or other means) for all nations of the British Empire and Commonwealth during April to May 1917. It also lists members of the Merchant Navy and the known civilian casualties caused as a direct result of enemy action that are not commemorated by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. In total, 72,712 names are included in this volume of the First World War Roll of Honour.

Book excerpt: Huddersfields Roll of Honour 1914-1922 is a detailed account of 3,439 service personnel from Huddersfield who lost their lives during the First World War. In the Preface, HRH The Duke of York KG writes: This publication represents the lifetime work of Margaret Stansfield who sadly passed away in 2012. Margaret spent 30 years compiling the 3,439 biographical entries giving a poignant insight into the background, working lives and families of those who selflessly left Huddersfield to fight for their country never to return. Along with the biographical accounts there are many moving letters to the families of soldiers who lost their lives reflecting an attempt to bring comfort amid the darkness that their loss brought to both families and comrades alike.

In some instances only initials are given for first names where full names were not known/recorded in the original sources. Officers were not issued service numbers. With the Battles of the Somme and Verdun reaching their first anniversary, and with the failed Nivelle Offensive behind them, the protests amongst the French troops reached their peak in June 1917. With the Battles of April and May being a partial success at best, the Pyrrhic nature of the 'victories' did not please the frontline soldiers. With the offensives in France over, another action at Ypres was being planned for the end of July - the now infamous Third Battle of Ypres. This tenth book in the First World War Roll of Honour series covers the casualties attributable directly to the War (including those killed in action, died of wounds, illness or other means) for all nations of the British Empire and Commonwealth during June to August 1917. It also lists members of the Merchant Navy and the known civilian casualties caused as a direct result of enemy action that are not commemorated by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. In total, 72,005 names are included in this volume of the First World War Roll of Honour.

July 1916 is infamous in the history of the First World War, for it was on 1st July that the Battle of the Somme began. This Battle has become synonymous with the futility of trench warfare, the horrors of industrialised conflict and the high price paid with the lives of thousands of soldiers. It is for this reason that this entire volume of The Firs World War Roll of Honour is dedicated solely to the casualties of July 1916. This fifth book in the First World War Roll of Honour series covers the casualties attributable directly to the War (including those killed in action, died of wounds, illness or other means) for all nations of the British Empire and Commonwealth during July 1916. It also lists members of the Merchant Navy and the known civilian casualties cause das a direct result of enemy action that are not commemorated by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. In total, 60,564 names are included in this volume of the First World War Roll of Honour.
