Saul David's "All The King's Men" is a thrilling history of the British Redcoat from the English Civil War to Waterloo. Between 1660 and 1815 British supremacy on foreign soil was near total. Central to this success was the humble redcoat soldier who showed heroism in battle and stoicism in peace, despite appalling treatment. This is their story: of brutal discipline and inedible food, of loyalty and low pay, of barracks and battlefield - of victory, defeat, life and death. Praise for "All The King's Men": "An extraordinary story, packed with drama, incident and great characters..."All The King's Men" is all you could hope for...Quite an achievement". (Patrick Bishop, "Country Life"). "A heady mixture of heroism, incompetence, devilish tactics and plain good luck". ("Sunday Times"). "Filled with swashbuckling derring-do, the reek of blood and gunpowder, combined with shrewd analysis of power, war and psychology". (Simon Sebag Montefiore). Saul David is Professor of War Studies at the University of Buckingham and the author of several critically acclaimed books, including The Indian Mutiny: 1857, Zulu and, most recently, Victoria's Wars: The Rise of Empire. He recently presented 'Bullets, Boots and Bandages' for BBC 4 and is a regular contributor to Radio 4.
