(and young at heart) ladybird puffin home authors search explore why i write the specator writes for the spectator the times in the times books the passage to india it is 1831, riots and rebellions are widespread . . . in england, the new government is facing protests against the attempts of the tory-dominated house of lords to thwart the passing of the reform bill. in india, relations are strained between the presidency of madras and some of the neighbouring princely states. having taken command of the action in bristol to restore order after one of the bloodiest and most destructive riots in the nation's history, lieutenant-colonel matthew hervey is out of favour with the new government. but then his old friend, sir eyre somervile, offers him a lifeline. somervile has persuaded the court of directors of the east india company to approve an increase in the madras military establishment. hervey and the 6th light dragoons are sent to the princely state of coorg. the rajah is in revolt against the east india company’s terms and hervey’s regiment is called upon to crush the rebellion. with the stakes raised by an unexpected visitation from his past, for hervey the question is whether he and his men will get out of this brutal war unscathed? hardback ebook too important for the generals ‘war is too important to be left to the generals’ snapped future french prime minister georges clemenceau on learning of yet another bloody and futile offensive on the western front. one of the great questions in the ongoing discussions and debate about the first world war is why did winning take so long and exact so appalling a human cost? after all this was a fight that, we were told, would be over by christmas. now, in his major new history, , former professional soldier and author of the acclaimed 1914: fight the good fight , provides answers that are disturbing as well as controversial, and have a contemporary resonance. he disputes the growing consensus among historians that british generals were not to blame for the losses and setbacks in the ‘war to end all wars’ – that, given the magnitude of their task, they did as well anyone could have. he takes issue with the popular view that the ‘amateur’ opinions on strategy of politicians such as lloyd george and, especially, winston churchill, prolonged the war and increased the death toll. on the contrary, he argues, even before the war began churchill had a far more realistic, intelligent and humane grasp of strategy than any of the admirals or generals, while very few senior officers – including sir douglas haig – were up to the intellectual challenge of waging war on this scale. and he repudiates the received notion that churchill’s stature as a wartime prime minister after 1940 owes much to the lessons he learned from his first world war ‘mistakes’ – notably the dardanelles campaign – maintaining that in fact churchill’s achievement in the second world war owes much to the thwarting of his better strategic judgement by the ‘professionals’ in the first – and his determination that this would not be repeated. mallinson argues that from day one of the war britain was wrong-footed by absurdly faulty french military doctrine and paid, as a result, an unnecessarily high price in casualties. he shows that lloyd george understood only too well the catastrophically dysfunctional condition of military policy-making and struggled against the weight of military opposition to fix it. and he asserts that both the british and the french failed to appreciate what the americans’ contribution to victory could be – and, after the war, to acknowledge fully what it had actually been. paperback hardback ebook words of command january 1830, and one of the hardest winters in memory . . . and the prime minister, the iron duke, is resisting growing calls for parliamentary reform, provoking scenes of violent unrest in the countryside. but there are no police outside london and most of the yeomanry regiments, to whom the authorities had always turned when disorder threatened, have been disbanded as an economy measure. against this inflammable backdrop lieutenant-colonel matthew hervey, recently returned from an assignment in the balkans, takes command of his regiment, the 6th light dragoons. his fears that things might be a little dull are quickly dispelled by the everyday business of vexatious officers, difficult choices over which ncos to promote not to mention the incendiarists on the doorstep of the king himself. but it’s when the sixth are sent to brussels for the fifteenth anniversary celebrations of the battle of waterloo and find themselves caught up in the belgian uprising against dutch rule that the excitement really starts. will hervey be able to keep out of the fighting – a war that would lead, nearly a century later, to britain’s involvement in an altogether different war – while safeguarding his country’s interests? not likely! paperback hardback ebook 1914: fight the good fight ‘no part of the great war compares in interest with its opening’ , wrote churchill. ‘the measured, silent drawing together of gigantic forces, the uncertainty of their movements and positions, the number of unknown and unknowable facts made the first collision a drama never surpassed…in fact the war was decided in the first twenty days of fighting, and all that happened afterwards consisted in battles which, however formidable and devastating, were but desperate and vain appeals against the decision of fate.’ on of britain's foremost military historians and defence experts tackles the origins - and the opening first few weeks of fighting - of what would become known as 'the war to end all wars'. intensely researched and convincingly argued, explores and explains the grand strategic shift that occurred in the century before the war, the british army’s regeneration after its drubbings in its fight against the boer in south africa, its almost calamitous experience of the first twenty days’ fighting in flanders to the point at which the british expeditionary force - the 'old contemptibles' - took up the spade in the middle of september 1914: for it was then that the war changed from one of rapid and brutal movement into the more familiar vision of trench warfare on western front. in this vivid, compelling new history, malliinson brings his experience as a professional soldier to bear on the circumstances, events, actions and individuals and speculates – tantalizingly – on what might have been... paperback hardback ebook on his majesty's service january 1829: george iv is on the throne, wellington is england's prime-minister, and snow is falling thickly on the london streets as lieutenant-colonel matthew hervey is summoned to the horse guards in the expectation of command of his regiment, the 6th light dragoons. but the benefits of long-term peace at home mean cuts in the army, and hervey is told that the sixth are to be reduced to a single squadron. with his long-term plans in disarray, he undertakes instead a six-month assignment as an observer with the russian army. soon hervey, his friend edward fairbrother and his faithful groom, private johnson, are sailing north to st petersburg, and from there to the eastern balkans, and the ferocious war between russia and the ottoman empire. hervey is meant to be an impartial spectator in the campaign, but soon the circumstances - and his own nature - propel him into a more active role. in the climactic battle of kulewtscha, in which more troops were engaged than in any battle since waterloo, hervey and fairbrother find themselves in the thick of the action. for matthew hervey, the stakes have never been higher - or more personal. paperback ebook the making of the british army edgehill, 1642: surveying the disastrous scene in the aftermath of the first battle of the english civil war, oliver cromwell realizes that war can no longer be made in the old, feudal way: there has to be system and discipline, and therefore - eventually - a standing professional army. from the 'new model army' of cromwell's distant vision, former soldier shows us the people and events that have shaped the army we know today. how marlborough's momentous victory at blenheim is linked to wellington's at waterloo; how the desperate fight at rorke's drift in 1879 underpinned the heroism of the airborne forces at arnhem in 1944; and why montgomery's momentous victory at el alamein mattered long after the second world war was over. from the army's origins at the battle of edgehill to our current conflict in afghanistan, this is history at its most relevant - and most dramatic. paperback ebook warrior matthew hervey of the 6th light dragoons is urgently summoned to the cape colony when he learns that the zulu warrior king shaka is about to wage war. soon hervey, his old friend eyre somervile and their escort of dragoons and
