Military Intervention in Britain by Anthony Babington
Traces the history of civil intervention by the military from the Gordon Riots to the Gibraltar Incident to show that the division of responsibility between the police and the military is more apparent than real. This book should be of interest to students and lecturers in politics and military history.
