From the redcoat who served Charles II to the modern, camouflage-clad guard at Camp Bastion, from battlefield to barrack-room, this is a magisterial social history of the British soldier. Since 1660 the army has evolved & adapted, but the social organisation of the men has changed less, with the major combat arms retaining many of the characteristics familiar to those who fought at Blenheim, Waterloo & the Somme. The Duke of Marlborough, who built up the British army to become a world-class fighting force in the 1660s, would recognise in the tired heroes of Helmand the descendants of the men he led to victory at Blenheim over three hundred years ago. ' Soldiers' is exhaustively researched, & Holmes's affection for the soldier shines through on every page. Above all, this book is brimming with great stories, from the chaos of the battlefield to the fug of the barrack-room, from Ulster to Bengal, from Flanders' fields to the Afghan hills. This is a magisterial social history of the British soldier
- & Richard Holmes's fitting last tribute to the British soldier to whom he was so devoted.

This is a story of a man as time-worn as the redcoats in the army of Charles II & as youthful as the gate guards at Helmand's Camp Bastion. For Richard Holmes, the British soldier is signed up to a unique tribe, bound together across the generations. This book is brimming with great stories, from the chaos of the battlefield to the fug of the barrack-room, from Ulster to Bengal, from Flanders fields to the Afghan hills. With the depth of its research matched to the wit & humour of the author's reflections, Soldier's is a wonderful testament to Holmes's brilliantly colourful blend of erudition & anecdote. His profound knowledge & understanding of the soldier is displayed in these pages with magisterial force. It is Richard Holmes's last tribute to the British soldier, to whom he was so devoted. ...
