What is Generals : ten British commanders who shaped the world about?
Mark Urban tells the story of ten exceptional soldiers who left their mark on Britain and the world. Some - including Wellington, Kitchener and Montgomery - are names etched in the national mythology. Others are more obscure figures whose achievements or failures may have had consequences quite different to those they had intended; the incompetence of one British General led to the creation of the United States of America, the ideas of another to the invention of Blitzkreig.
