 WELLINGTON AND THE BRITISH ARMY'S INDIAN CAMPAIGNS 1798-1805

WELLINGTON AND THE BRITISH ARMY'S INDIAN CAMPAIGNS 1798-1805

Covers the 1798-1805 campaigns of Arthur Wellesley – later the Duke of Wellington – and General Lake in the Deccan and Hindustan. While it fully acknowledges Wellington's vital role, it also addresses the nature of the warring armies, the significance of the campaigns of Lake in North India, and leaves the reader with an understanding of the human experience of war in the region. For this was a brutal conflict in which British armies clashed with the formidable forces of the Sultan of Mysore and the Maratha princes. There were dramatic pitched battles at Assaye, Argaum, Delhi, and Laswari, and epic sieges at Seringapatam, Gawilghur, and Bhurtpore. The British success was not universal. $35.00 USD

 YOU HAVE TO DIE IN PIEDMONT!: The Battle of Assietta, 19 July 1747 – The War of the Austrian Succession in the Alps

YOU HAVE TO DIE IN PIEDMONT!: The Battle of Assietta, 19 July 1747 – The War of the Austrian Succession in the Alps

Tells of the French regiments that were coming from the Mongeneve Pass in order to attack a combined Austro-Sardinian force entrenched on the Assietta Plateau. The battle was the bloodiest single day action not only of the War of Austrian Succession (1740-1748) in Italy, but in the whole military history of the Alps. Details how the strategic goal of the French offensive was the siege and the capture of the Fort of Exilles, in the Susa Valley on the road from Briancon to Turin. The Battle of Assietta became a sort of military legend for the Sardinian forces, and subsequently for the Italian Army, but no serious attempt to reconstruct the event was ever made. Only at the end of the nineteenth century did the French try to develop a more detailed study of the struggle by publishing the manuscript written by Lieutenant-General de Vault in the second half of eighteenth century. Contains 26 black-and-white illustrations, 18 black-and-white photos, 19 maps, 3 diagrams, and 14 tables. $50.00 USD

From these refugees, the British built a force – the Corps of Colonial Marines – which turned Britain's campaign on America's coasts from harassment into an existential threat to the new nation.
