Impossible Victories by Bryan Perrett

Success on the battlefield is sometimes achieved against all odds, with victory seemingly snatched from the jaws of apparently inevitable defeat. In ten episodes, the author revisits battles from the Peninsula War of 1811 to Vietnam in 1967, where such victories have been achieved.
Bryan Perrett left the army as a successful career officer to take up the pen as a full-time writer. Able to write to any brief (he was captioning picture-strips for schoolgirl comics at one point), he found his metier as a military historian and writer of good, fast, episodic, narrative popular histories. His many books, all founded on meticulous research from primary sources, find a wide popular readership. He is the bestselling author in the bestselling Cassell Military Classics series
