The Forgotten War Against Napoleon - Gareth Glover
« on: 05 September 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.

If you would like to know more then just follow the link to JJ's

Often it is better to remain silent and let people think you are stupid than to open your mouth and remove all possible doubt.

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!
