Marching with Sharpe
Author: B. J. Bluth
Publisher: Collins
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
Using the same re-enactment groups that provided much of the man (and woman-) power for the TV series, Marching With Sharpe reveals what it was like to fight in Wellington's Army during the Napoleonic Wars. How to fire a musket rifle, sword fighting, forming square, how to cook chickens in a cavalry breastplate... not just the military detail but all the nitty gritty of everyday life. What was it like to wear the uniforms of the period, what did you eat, what medical treatment was available and how to withstand the lash are also covered.

Wellington's Rifles
Author: Ray Cusick
Publisher: Pen and Sword
ISBN: 178159287X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
Until now there has not been a serious study of the rifle-armed regiments of the British Army that earned such renown in the Peninsular and Waterloo campaigns. Compiled by a former rifleman, Ray Cusick, who has written extensively on the subject, Wellington's Rifles examines the new rifle regiments, how they came about, their development and their actions.??The author also investigates the introduction of rifled muskets into the British Army in the French and Indian wars of the eighteenth century, where they were shunned by the military establishment, to their transition into a key element in Wellington's extraordinarily successful Peninsular army.??The training and tactics of the riflemen are explained and each significant engagement in which they were involved is explored in thrilling detail. It was the riflemen of the 95th Regiment that inspired the series of Sharpe books and films. That was the fiction; this is the reality.??The publication will be introduced by the renowned Napoleonic historian Ian Fletcher.
