Название: Soldiers: Army Lives and Loyalties from Redcoats to Dusty Warriors Автор: Richard Holmes Издательство: HarperCollins Publishers ISBN: 0007225695 Год: 2011 Формат: EPUB Страниц: 688 Размер: 12,2 МБ Язык: Английский
A magisterial new history of the British soldier – a man famously described by the Duke of Wellington as ‘the scum of the earth’. From battlefield to barrack-room, this book is stuffed to the brim with anecdotes and stories of soldiers from the army of Charles II, through Empire and two World Wars to modern times. The British soldier forms a core component of British history. In this scholarly but gossipy book, Richard Holmes presents a rich social history of the man (and now more frequently woman) who have been at the heart of his writing for decades.
