New hardcover with no remainder mark. DJ has light shelf wear, scratches. Professional service from a Main Street bookstore. ; 1.32 x 9.94 x 7.08 Inches; 360 pages; Sieges are a military tactic as old as time but all too often they are lost within the study of a whole war or campaign when the skill, judgment, tactical awareness and weapon deployment required in such warfare is as essential as any other form of battle.

The author skillfully interweaves the dramas and human interest elements into his account of the event. William Seymour served in the Scots Guards and Special Forces in the Second World War.

Clean, solid, unmarked book with exceptions of previous notations. Professional service from a Main street bookstore. ; 1.25 x 10 x 7 Inches; 271 pages; This volume aims to show that but for the many political and military mistakes made by British politicians and, to a lesser extent by the service chiefs, the War of American Independence need never have been fought, and if fought, need not have been lost. Some of the battles are described in some detail, and it is intended that the outline account given for the others is sufficient to enable the reader to understand the action within the context of the narrative.
