This volume of the History of Warfare covers the period between the end ot the Napoleonic wars and the outbreak of the Great (or First World) War. Thus, in a strict interpretation, Waterloo and Mons lie outside its scope. Nevertheless I have included both as prologue and epilogue respectively. In neither have I attempted a comprehensive description. Instead I have given a deliberately one sided account intended to illustrate the conditions under which land battles were fought at the beginning and end of the period.
There are more than 150 colour and black and white illustrations with specially commissioned maps and drawings included in this book.
