The British Battle Series consists of a number of monographs upon actions in which British troops have taken part. Each battle is the subject of a separate book illustrated with coloured maps, illustrative of the movements described in the text, together with a large number of line maps showing the successive details of the action. In each case the political circumstances which led to the battle are explained; next, the stages leading up to it; lastly, the action in detail.

“Colonel Cordonnier’s book is not a mere history of a campaign, but rather a study, and an especially valuable one, of the concerted action of policy, strategy, and tactics which together form what men call war.”—United Service Magazine.
