Description

Explore the human side of military history with Red Coat, Green Machine: Continuity in Change in the British Army 1700 to 2000. This study offers a unique look at the people who make up the British Army, moving beyond mere battle tactics to examine the daily lives of soldiers across three centuries. By combining Social Anthropology and Military History, this book provides a framework to understand the connections between the redcoats of the past and the soldiers of today. It asks fundamental questions about what remains constant in the lives of those who serve, whether they were fighting at Blenheim or Goose Green. This work is an essential read for anyone interested in the social structures and human interactions that define military service.
