A military history of Britain : from 1775 to the present

"Starting his account at a time when Britain was poised to rule the world's oceans - and much of its land as well - prolific historian Jeremy Black details the nation's involvement in global affairs from the late-18th century to the present. A Military History of Britain is an account of military structures and cultures, and relevant socio-political contexts, as well as of conflicts. As in all of his writing, Black seeks to challenge conventional assumptions and offer illuminating new perspectives."--Jacket
