Andrew Bamford's first-rate study provides an excellent reminder of
key aspects of soldiering during the Napoleonic wars. Well grounded
in the sources, this book is of importance not only for the history
of the British army but also for that of other armies of the
period."" - Jeremy Black, author of The War of 1812 in the Age of
Napoleon and Fighting for America: The Struggle for Mastery in
North America, 1519-1871
""An important work that will be required reading for students
of the British army of the Napoleonic wars, this study
provides the first account ever written of how Britain managed
its limited military manpower. The book's conclusions will both
surprise and impress."" - Charles J. Esdaile, author of Outpost of
Empire: The Napoleonic Occupation of Andalucia, 1810-1812
