Title: The Forgotten War Against Napoleon - Gareth Glover
Post by: carojon on September 05, 2020, 07:28:59 AM

Covering the long and convoluted war in the Mediterranean between 1793 and 1815 including the short break for the Peace of Amiens, I first got to see what this book was all about at Crusade in 2017, the year of it publication.

Having now read it myself I have put together my thoughts of this very handy reference to the conflict together with a link to my Crusade Post that covers off some of the detailed actions covered, as presented by Gareth Glover himself.

Sounds like a right rollicking read - and a chance to use the pre-Waterloo Brunswick Hussars!

Absolutely, and to build a unit of Corsican Rangers or Greek Light Infantry to back up the marines and 35th Foot!
