  The War of 1812

  This compact history of the War of 1812 attempts to separate myth from reality. Harry Coles narrates the main operations on both land and sea of the three-year struggle. He examines the conflict from the British (and Canadian) as well as the American point of view, relating events in America to the larger war going on in Europe.
   
  “A balanced analysis of tactics and strategy, this book also summarizes succinctly and clearly recent scholarship on causes and describes briefly the war’s military, economic, and political consequences. Coles has surveyed thoroughly the existing literature but arrives at a number of independent judgments. It is the best single-volume account of the war in all its aspects. In recounting sea battles, Coles puts aside the patriotic blinders that have for so long prevented a sensible understanding of American capabilities and strategic necessities; thus American naval victories are put in a proper perspective. And in dealing with land engagements, he has shunned the mocking and amused attitude which has so often passed for historical judgment. Undergraduates will be stimulated by the hints of modern parallels and will find useful the excellent annotated bibliography and simple maps.”—Choice

  Grande Armée and Wellington’s...

  Editors Charles River

  Nearly 50 years after Napoleon met his Waterloo, generals across the West continued to study his tactics and engage their armies the same way armies fought during the Napoleonic Era. Despite advances in military technology and the advent of railroads for transportation, all of which made defensive warfare more effective, acclaimed military geniuses like Robert E. Lee used flank attacks and infantry charges against superior numbers in an effort to win decisive victories, and it would not be until World War I that concepts of modern warfare made the Napoleonic Era of the early 19th century outdated. 
  Napoleon’s enemies would famously say he was worth 50,000 men in the field, but the simple truth is he wasn’t able to dominate Europe on his own. In fact, the subordinates and soldiers underneath him participated in several of history’s most famous battles and charted the course of Napoleon’s rise and fall. No single factor can account for these victories, which could be attributed to a combination of high morale, a truly egalitarian approach to promotion from the ranks, a radical army organization, and the inspired leadership of Napoleon, all of which combined to make the Grande Armée virtually unbeatable for the first few years of its existence. 
  The 18th century was a tumultuous period for the British army, one often overlooked in popular accounts of British history. It began with the formal unification of Britain, a period of great success for the nation's armies, which were led by one of Britain's greatest generals, the Duke of Marlborough. This was followed by a period of global activity and military reform as the British Empire expanded. Though naval power played a greater part in this success, it led to new obligations and challenges for the army. Even as the empire soared to new heights, the 18th century was one that was initially marked by triumph but ended in failure and decline.

  Brexit - The United Kingdom’s...

  Brexit, the United Kingdom's decision to leave the European Union, is one of the most consequential events in modern European history. The term, derived from “British exit,” encapsulates not just a political decision but a significant shift in governance, identity, and global relationships. This momentous choice followed decades of debate over the UK’s role within the European project and culminated in the 2016 referendum, where a slim majority of voters chose to leave the EU after more than four decades of membership.  
    
  For many supporters, Brexit symbolized a reclamation of sovereignty. They believed that leaving the EU would restore the UK’s ability to independently manage its borders, laws, and economic policies. Critics, however, warned of the economic, political, and social risks associated with exiting such an interconnected union. The campaign and its aftermath highlighted divisions within British society\u2014geographical, generational, and ideological\u2014that have defined the national conversation ever since.  
    
  The journey from referendum to departure was marked by profound challenges. The complexities of untangling years of shared policies, trade agreements, and legal frameworks became evident as negotiations unfolded. Key issues, such as citizens’ rights, future trade relationships, and the Irish border, underscored the depth of the UK’s integration with the EU and the difficulties inherent in leaving. Political turmoil further complicated the process, with successive governments struggling to reconcile domestic and international pressures.
