From a small Imperial Army in 1890 keeping the Pax Britannica with the Royal Navies aid, we see its expansion and mechanization, and then after WW11, National Service is retained forsome years to deal with Korea and a retreat from Empire, until now once again we havea small, volunteer Army of proffesionals, dedicated to Europe's defence.

Product Description:
The function and achievements of the British Army are assessed, from its origins in 1890 as a relatively small body, composed entirely of volunteers, to the present day. The author traces the impact of conscription on the Army during the World Wars, and makes suggestions for the future.
