Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lieutenant-General Sir Ralph Abercromby K. B., 1793-1801: A Memoir by His Son The following Memoir of Lieutenant-General Sir Ralph Abereromby, was written by my Father during his residence at Colinton, after he had retired from official life. His reasons for undertaking this work, and the objects which he had in view in writing it, are so fully developed by himself in the Introductory Chapter, that all further explanations by me on these points would be superfluous. It may be right to observe, that although my Father, throughout this Narrative, has invariably given to my Grandfather the title of "Sir Ralph," by which he was most generally known, it was only on the 15th of July 1795, that the Order of the Bath, from which he derived it, was conferred upon him in acknowledgment of his services.

This book was released on 2009-11 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lt. Gen. Sir Ralph Abercromby was a Scottish soldier who served in the Seven Years' War, and the war with Revolutionary France. Intended for the Bar, he studied law at Leipzig in Germany, where he became entranced by the Generalship of Frederick the Great of Prussia. Giving up law for a Cornet's Commission in the Dragoon Guards, he learned his soldiering on the battlefields of the Seven Years' War. Disapproving of the conduct of the war against the American Colonies, he resigned from the Army, but rejoined on the outbreak of war with France. Given a Division under the disastrous command of the Duke of York, his conduct of the retreat in the Helder campaign was so skilful that he was knighted. Appointed to command forces in the West Indies, he added Trinidad and Tobago to Britain's colonies, but failed to wrest Puerto Rico from the Spanish. His next commands were in Ireland and Scotland, and in 1801 he was sent to 'dispossess' the French from Egypt. Landing successfully under heavy enemy fire at Aboukir Bay, however, Abercromby was mortally wounded at his subsequent victory over the French at Alexandria, dying aboard ship. This biography, written by one of the General's sons, is a full life of a popular and successful soldier.

Book Synopsis British Victory in Egypt, 1801 by : Dr Piers Mackesy
Download or read book British Victory in Egypt, 1801 written by Dr Piers Mackesy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-03-07 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1800 the British Army was the laughing-stock of Europe. A year later, after forty years of failure, its honour and reputation had been redeemed. British Victory in Egypt, 1801 recounts and analyses the story of the expeditionary force that ejected Bonaparte's crack troops from Egypt. Piers Mackesy shows how the future of the British Empire depended on the dislodging of the Napoleonic force in the Middle East. Outlining the daring assault and the masterly planning and discipline that brought victory against the odds, this book also reveals how vital Sir Ralph Abercromby, an elderly Scot and leader of the army, was to the final success of the venture. The part played in the victory by the Highland regiments is still celebrated in Scotland. British Victory In Egypt, 1801 charts a critical episode in European and military history. It also reveals the training, tactics and strategy of a unique campaign and its executors.
