Great Battles
This was great fun to write and the result is one of my favourite types of book: one you can dip in and out of to read about history’s greatest battles. As the online blurb says:
Explore history’s greatest battles as never before, with stunning archival images and fascinating facts. Learn about the tactics that won the battle, the overarching war, and the rise and fall of empires in this easy to follow format. With a key event for each day of the year, This Day in History: Great Battles allows you to dip in and out of history in a new and exciting way.
Inside you will find:
• 365 fascinating moments in world history.
• Motivational and historical quotes by those who have changed the world.
• Color-coded icons for quickly locating entries by battle period or type.
• Bonus “Also on This Day” sections for when one key event just isn’t enough.
• “Week to View” sections showcasing small snippets of key battles from history for that week.
