Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Military Life of John, Duke of Marlborough Consummate as were the abilities, unbroken the success, immense the services of the Duke of Marlborough, the details of his campaigns can scarcely be said to be known to the vast majority of his countrymen. They have heard the distant echo of his fame, as they have that of the exploits of Timour, of Bajazet, and of Genghis Khan; the names of Blenheim and Ramillies, of Malplaquet and Oudenarde awaken a transient feeling of exultation in their bosoms; but as to the particulars of these events, the difficulties with which their general had to struggle, the objects for which he contended, even the places where they occurred, they are, for the most part, as ignorant as they are of similar details in the campaigns of Baber or Aurengzebe. What they do know is derived chiefly, if not entirely, from the histories of their enemies. Malice and party spirit have done much dim the reputation of the illustrious general in his own country, but these disturbing passions have not been felt in other states; and, strange to say, no adequate opinion of his merits can be formed by his countrymen but by viewing the impression he has made on her enemies, or studying the history of his victories by them. Marlborough's exploits have made a prodigious impression on the Continent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of John, Duke of Marlborough With Some Account of His Contemporaries and of the War of the Succession, Vol. 1 The first edition of this work, in one volume, was intended as a mere sketch, chiefly for military readers, and was sug gested by the perusal of the Marlborough Despatches on their first appearance. The favourable reception which the work received from the public, and the increasing interest in the subject, has induced the Author in this edition to extend his original design, so as not only to embrace the political life of Marlborough, as well as the military, but to state at the end of every paragraph, as in his History of Europe, the authorities on which it was founded. In this way it has insensibly turned into a history of the War of the Succession, at least in those portions of it with which Great Britain is immediately concerned.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of John, Duke of Marlborough With Some Account of His Contemporaries and of the War of the Succession, Vol. 2 Although the campaign in Flanders was the principal one in 1708, and from its vast importance and thrilling interest absorbed the greater part of the forces of the contending parties, and nearly the whole interest of the struggle, yet it was by no means the only theatre of important operations. In other quarters considerable successes had been gained, which contributed to enhance the difficulties and augment the dangers of the French monarch. In the Mediterranean, Admiral Drake had conquered Sardinia, almost without striking a blow. Minorca, with its noble harbour and powerful fortress of Port Mahon, had yielded to a combined naval and military force under the able direction of General Stanhope, and, with Gibraltar, promised to secure to the English the command of that inland sea.
