1-242830 Dawson, Paul THE NAPOLEONIC 'DAD'S ARMY': The British Volunteer Movement, 1794-1814 Discusses how the aim of the 'Loyal Britons' was to organize patriotic, anti-French forces in defense of king and country and to help maintain the established order - thus leading to the Volunteer Act of 1794 to fight against the French. By 1804, there were 380,000 volunteers under arms and the various corps made up half to one third of all the home service forces, combined with volunteers who agreed to serve overseas, as garrison troops in India for example, the number grows to approximately 800,000 - meaning that around one in every five adult males participated in military activities. Using diaries and archive sources, this book seeks to explore the 'Dad's Army' of the Napoleonic Wars. Contains 16 mono illustrations.1 vol, 264 pgs 2024 UK, FRONTLINE BOOKS

2-231000 Knudson, Harold JAMES LONGSTREET AND THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR: The Confederate General Who Fought the Next War Examines Confederate General James Longstreet and his contributions to the art of war during the Civil War. Explores how Longstreeet understood early that the tactical defense dominated the offense, and the lethality with which his riflemen and artillery mowed down Union assaults hinted at what was to come in World War I. Longstreet's ability to launch and control powerful offensives was on display at Second Manassas in August 1862, and his assault plan at Chickamauga in September 1863 was similar, if not the forerunner to, World War II tactical-level German armored tactics. Discusses how Longstreet demonstrated progressive applications with artillery, staff work, force projection, and operational-level thinking. Uses 20th century U.S. Army doctrine, field training, staff planning, command, and combat experience to produce this view of Longstreet's generalship in comparison to modern warfare.

1-242840 Richardson, Matthew WITH THE BRITISH CAVALRY IN 1914 Details the WWI British cavalry regiments and their evolution. Discusses how lancers, hussars, and dragoons trained for shock tactics as well as scouting and reconnaissance. In the new warfare of the 20th century, the true value of these regiments was as an intensively trained, highly mobile reserve.

While it was launched with the intent of turning Ethiopia into an Italian possession, it was in fact a war of aggression against an independent, sovereign, state with membership of the League of Nations -- a state that had, according to one of its 19th-century rulers, been 'for 14 centuries a Christian island in a sea of pagans.' Looks at how the Italian victory resulted from using aircraft, mustard gas, and motorization/mechanization. Contains 25 mono illustrations.1 vol, 272 pgs 2024 UK, PEN & SWORD

Examines how his decisions affected the development of German Jet aircraft, the types of U-Boats used, what priority assigned to key weapons in the overall German war effort, and what determined how programs such as the V1, V2, and the potential German Atomic bomb were integrated into the German war effort. All these matters were critical to the actual operational power of the Wehrmacht as opposed to its theoretical potential. Also explores the effect of the allied strategic bombing campaign on Germany's war potential and how effective the steps were Hitler ordered against it; as well as what the leading military figures of the Third Reich thought of Hitler's command.

Recounts the struggles the men faced at home and abroad, as the racism prevalent at the time meant that black Americans were deemed unsuitable for the demands of modern war.
