Redcoats

0 - Default Title
Description
An examination of the experiences of the British Army soldiers, or 'redcoats', who fought in North America and the West Indies between 1755 and 1763. It explores the Army's distinctive society, using new evidence to provide a voice for ordinary soldiers who have previously been ignored by historians. Whilst other books on the period concentrate upon major personalities and events, this study also examines events from the perspective of the individual: themes covered include the experience of combat, captivity amongst the Indians, the Army's women, and the fate of veterans.
