Great Battles

Certain battles acquire iconic status in history. Those who win have been celebrated as heroes, and nations have used their triumphs to establish their founding myths. It is precisely for these reasons that their legacies have outlived their direct political consequences.

Commemorated in paintings, verse and music, marked by monumental memorials, and used as the way points for the periodisation of history, these battles have also enjoyed cultural after-lives. Each book in the Great Battles series examines both the battle itself, and also its legacy in the imaginations of the victors and the vanquished.

Series Editor Sir Hew Strachan, Professor of International Relations, St Andrews University
