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.

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.

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.

Download or read book Provincial Readers in Eighteenth-Century England written by Jan Fergus and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-01-25 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many scholars have written about eighteenth-century English novels, but no one really knows who read them. This study provides historical data on the provincial reading publics for various forms of fiction - novels, plays, chapbooks, children's books, and magazines. Archival records of Midland booksellers based in five market towns and selling printed matter to over thirty-three hundred customers between 1744 and 1807 form the basis for new information about who actually bought and borrowed different kinds of fiction in eighteenth-century provincial England. This book thus offers the first solid demographic information about actual readership in eighteenth-century provincial England, not only about the class, profession, age, and sex of readers but also about the market of available fiction from which they made their choices - and some speculation about why they made the choices they did. Contrary to received ideas, men in the provinces were the principal customers for eighteenth-century novels, including those written by women. Provincial customers preferred to buy rather than borrow fiction, and women preferred plays and novels written by women - women's works would have done better had women been the principal consumers. That is, demand for fiction (written by both men and women) was about equal for the first five years, but afterward the demand for women's works declined. Both men and women preferred novels with identifiable authors to anonymous ones, however, and both boys and men were able to cross gender lines in their reading. Goody Two-Shoes was one of the more popular children's books among Rugby schoolboys, and men read the Lady's Magazine. These and other findings will alter the way scholars look at the fiction of the period, the questions asked, and the histories told of it.

Download or read book Lord Selkirk written by J.M. Bumsted and published by Univ. of Manitoba Press. This book was released on 2008-11-01 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Douglas, the Fifth Earl of Selkirk (1770–1820), was a complex man of his times, whose passions left an indelible mark on Canadian history. A product of the Scottish Enlightenment and witness to the French Revolution, he dedicated his fortune and energy to the vision of a new colony at the centre of North America. His final legacy, the Red River Settlement, led to the eventual end of the dominance of the fur trade and began the demographic and social transformation of western Canada. The product of three decades of research, this is the definitive biography of Lord Selkirk. Bumsted’s passionate prose and thoughtful analysis illuminate not only the man, but also the political and economic realities of the British empire at the turn of the nineteenth century. He analyzes Selkirk’s position within these realities, showing how his paternalistic attitudes informed his “social experiments” in colonization and translated into unpredictable, and often tragic, outcomes. Bumsted also provides extensive detail on the complexities of colonization, the Scottish Enlightenment, Scottish peerage, the fur trade, the Red River settlement, and early British-Canadian politics.

Download or read book Amiens and Munich written by E.L. Presseisen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has not been my intention to write a definitive study of appeasement. Such a work would have to include the French variety, Stalin's appeasement of Hitler between 1939 and 1941, or the appeasement of Japan in 1938 and 1939. I chose the British case for a number of reasons. The opportunity of a comparative model was a challenge, British appeasement was well known, and the structure of the British government remained rather the same in the intervening period between Waterloo and Dunkirk. I admit that Amiens and Munich represent the most dramatic episodes in the story of appeasement, but then the British struggles against Bonaparte and Hitler were of epic proportions. It was of course unnecessary "to prove" appeasement at Munich, but very few historians had looked at the treaty of Amiens in this way. Much of my research effort was therefore devoted to examining the published material of the earlier period. While I have used some original Addington documents, this work is not primarily an inquiry into unpublished sources but a rein terpretation of well known events that were made public long ago. The flood of publications and revelations of the 1930's continues unabated. I have tried to use the latest studies, especially those that have benefited from the thirty year rule. My debts of gratitude extend over a long period since two stints as chairman of the department have delayed this book by at least four years.
