An indispensable pocket guide to every significant battle site in Britain
Britain’s many battlefields bear witness to dramatic turning points in our history. In this very readable guide, Clark surveys the major battles, exploring over one thousand years of colourful and fascinating history, from the Roman occupation to the last battle to be fought on British soil, at Culloden. 
A Brief Guide to British Battlefields covers over 100 battles fought between AD 84 and 1746, along with explanatory details of contemporary weapons and tactics. Each entry is a self-contained guide – an account of events leading up to the battle, a vivid description of the fighting itself and an assessment of the short- and long-term consequences – but the book can also be read as a continuous narrative. 
The book is filled with useful information for visits, including precise identification of the location of each battlefield and how to gain access, and significant features of each site.

Paperback. Condizione: New. A very readable work of reference offering a survey in chronological order, from AD 84 to 1746, of the major battles which have taken place on British soil, from the Roman occupation to Culloden, the last battle fought on British soil. In this way, the book can be read as a continuous narrative, while each entry also stands alone as a self-contained guide. The battles are grouped into relevant sections (such as the Wars of the Roses, the English Civil Wars and the Jacobite Rebellions), within broader historical periods. Each period is prefaced by a presentation of the nature of warfare and is enhanced by a feature article of specialist interest. Every entry includes a narrative of events leading up to the battle, a vivid description of the battle itself and an assessment of the long and short-term, consequences. In addition, there is useful information for visits, including precise identification of the location, details of access to and features of each site. The book is illustrated throughout with maps and a plate section. Codice articolo LU-9781472108135
