This book examines the evolution of British military thought between 1815 and 1940. It focuses on the contributions of eleven key military writers, historians, theorists and journalists, exploring their influence on British military theory, doctrine, and policy. From the Peninsular War veteran Sir William Napier to the progressive thinkers Fuller and Liddell Hart, the book charts how the British Army transformed from a conservative force into a world leader in military innovation. It analyses the impact of these figures against a backdrop of contemporary issues, such as reserve forces and imperial defence, revealing the intellectual currents that shaped Britain's armed forces during a period of significant change. Discover the personalities and ideas that helped forge a modern military.
