History's Worst Battles - And the People Who Fought Them (Paperback)

History’s worst battles takes a light-hearted but informative look at 50 of the world’s bloodiest and most significant conflicts. In the bad old days, history was about individuals – kings, queens, emperors, generals and presidents – and the battles they fought, and lost or won. Today, history is much more likely to be about technological change, economics and abstract socio-political forces. But that doesn’t mean that battles aren’t important … Organised chronologically from the first battle for which we have tactical evidence, Kadesh in 1274 bce, this book features some of the most disastrous military engagements ever fought, on five continents and in every major conflict from antiquity to modern times. A fascinating read for history and military history buffs alike.
