Book Synopsis A History of the British Army – Vol. II (1714-1763) by : Sir John William Fortescue
Download or read book A History of the British Army – Vol. II (1714-1763) written by Sir John William Fortescue and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2013-02-18 with total page 811 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir John Fortescue holds a pre-eminent place amongst British military historians, his enduring fame and legacy resting mainly on his life’s work “The History of the British Army”, issued in 20 volumes, which took him some 30 years to complete. In scope and breadth it is such that no modern scholar has attempted to cover such a large and diverse subject in its entirety; but Sir John did so and with aplomb, leading to a readable and comprehensive study. According to Professor Emeritus of Military History at King’s College, Brian Bond, the work was “the product of indefatigable research in original documents, a determination to present a clear, accurate, and readable narrative of military operations, and a close personal knowledge of the battlefields, which enabled him to elucidate his account with excellent maps. Most important, however, was his motivation: namely, a lifelong affection for the old, long-service, pre-Cardwell army, the spirit of the regiments of which it largely consisted, and the value of its traditions to the nation. An important part of his task was to distil and inculcate these soldierly virtues which, in his conservative view, contrasted sharply with the unedifying character of politicians who habitually meddled in military matters.” ODNB. This second volume covers the period from 1713 to 1763, including the Jacobite rebellion of 1715, the wars of Austrian Succession, and British expansion into America and India and the enduring struggle with France for Imperial power. A MUST READ for any military enthusiast. Author — Fortescue, J. W. Sir, 1859-1933. Text taken, whole and complete, from the second edition published in 1910, London, by Macmillan and Co. Original Page Count – xxii and 606 pages. Illustrations — Numerous maps and plans
Book Synopsis The Adventures of Laforest - Dombourg: Volume Two by : Eric Gautier
Download or read book The Adventures of Laforest - Dombourg: Volume Two written by Eric Gautier and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his magisterial two-volume work, Eric Gautier brings to life, with unerring historical precision, the constant struggle for maritime supremacy between the French and English during the second half of the eighteenth century. In so doing, he fuses the breadth of Dumas with the accuracy of O’Brian and the charm of Forester, creating his own distinct and trustworthy voice. His hero, a young French noble, orphaned in mysterious circumstances, enrols as a Navy cadet at Brest and so begins a long and painful odyssey of self-discovery. His journey takes him from the seedy back streets of Brest and Saint-Malo to the corridors of power at Versailles, from the Bastille to the coasts of Cornwall, the West Indies, America, South Africa and India. He participates in many of the major naval engagements of the time, suffering wounds and innumerable setbacks as he doggedly uncovers the dark truth behind his mother’s kidnap and murder. As the work’s translator, Roger D. Taylor, says in his foreword: ‘The enemy is of course the Royal Navy, and it is refreshing to have a different perspective on the great naval actions of the pre-Napoleonic era. There is nothing rose-tinted about this perspective; the author’s rigorous historical sense, backed up by painstaking research of contemporary documentation, tells it just as it was. Nothing is glorified or distorted for cheap effect. The overall impact of the writing is so much the greater because of this.’ This book is Volume Two of a two-volume series.

Book Synopsis The Works of Edmund Burke Volume 2 by : Edmund Burke
Download or read book The Works of Edmund Burke Volume 2 written by Edmund Burke and published by Jazzybee Verlag. This book was released on with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Burke was one of the greatest political thinkers whom England has produced, and all his writings, like his speeches, are characterised by the welding together of knowledge, thought, and feeling. Unlike most orators he is more successful as a writer than as a speaker. He rose too far above the heads of his audience, which the continued splendour of his declamation, his inordinate copiousness, and his excessive vehemence, often passing into fury, at length wearied, and even disgusted: but in his writings are found some of the grandest examples of a fervid and richly elaborated eloquence. Though he was never admitted to the Cabinet, he guided and influenced largely the policy of his party, while by his efforts in the direction of economy and order in administration at home, and on behalf of kindly and just government in India, as well as by his contributions to political philosophy, he laid his country and indeed the world under lasting obligations. This is volume two out of twelve of his works, this volume containing various speeches and letters.
