Book Reviews of Redcoats: The British Soldier and War in the Americas, 1755-1763
Book Review: Individual narratives makes Redcoats come alive
Summary: 5 Stars
A thouroughly researched and well-documented narrative comes alive thanks to the numerous quotations which reflect the personal views and experiences of individual officers and men.
Brumwell's study brings insight and depth to a profession whose image has been traditionally distorted by mystique and prejudice.
Copious examples reveal the plight of individual soldiers, lending a human perspective to what is an excellent academic study.
