The Battlefields of England Zusammenfassung

The Battlefields of England Alfred H. Burne

England's battlefields bear witness to dramatic turning-points in the country's history. At Hastings, Bosworth Field, Flodden and Naseby, the battles fought were to have an enormous effect on English life. This double volume, containing Burne's famous Battlefields of England and More Battlefields of England make it possible for readers to follow the course of 39 battles from AD 51 to 1685, as if they were on the battlefields themselves.
