J. S. Omond's study of 1933 documents the historically problematic
relationship between Parliament and the Army. Providing an overview
of the 260 years which elapsed from the outbreak of the English
Civil War in 1642 until the establishment of the Army Council in
1904, the book describes the phases through which the problem of
political control of the army has passed. Omond draws upon a wide
variety of historical material including biographies, memoirs,
letters, parliamentary debates and newspaper articles in addressing
how and why this relationship has remained of principal concern
since the reign of Charles I. An Epilogue takes account of events
from 1904 to the book's publication in 1933, and a chronological
table summarises the key historical and political events.
