Dictionary of British Military History by George Usher

From the invasion of Britain by the Danes through the battle of Hastings, Agincourt and Waterloo up to the present day, this fascinating dictionary includes entries on battles, campaigns and famous commanders, as well as ranks, regiments, uniforms and weapons. The reader will find an outline of the British army since its formation in the 17th century, together with brief histories of battles and biographies of great military leaders. A handy reference source for all levels of student or enthusiast, including the general reader of historical reference and anyone with an interest in the British military.

"The thoroughness of the research is indicated by the large number of entries that will be unfamiliar to the general reader..contains much invaluable information and with its moderate price would be especially useful in smaller libraries that cannot afford the more extensive works on military history" Reference Review "This is a compact and useful reference book for anyone reseaching the past military involvement of a family member." Family History Monthly (January 2007)
