This presents a major re-evaluation of the standard view of
revolutionary armies, the range of attitudes towards the role of
heroic individuals, the formation and leadership of armies, and the
differences and similarities between such armies.
Beginning with an exploration of the New Model Army of the 1640s,
a force whose name itself seems to denote its revolutionary
credentials, the author presents ten case studies from around the
globe, including the American War of Independence, The French
Revolution, The Zulu-Boer War, the Waffen SS and the Viet-Cong.
Through a detailed analysis of source material, he examines the
images connected with these armies, both historical and recent, and
assesses these images in their socio-political and nationalist
contexts.
