It is generally assumed that the military reforms which propelled Russia into the modern world were due solely to the genius of Peter the Great. In fact, his reforms were built upon changes that had taken place during the previous 200 years, since the creation in 1550 of Russia's first full-time military force (the streltsi) by Ivan IV the Terrible. This account traces Russia's armies from that beginning, through the creation of paid regular regiments from1630, up to the reign of Peter the Great. It is illustrated with rare early drawings, photos of surviving artifacts, and dazzling colour reconstructions of exotic military costumes.

Armies of Ivan the Terrible
Mr Middlebrook's eye turns to the German Offensive of 21st Match 1918, possibly one of the most important data on the Western Front.
Taking the now familiar format of examining the forces in play, the attack and defence plans he them shows how these were utilised as the Germans overwhelm the overstretched British defenders and drive a wedge into the Western Front.
Examining the controversy surrounding British morale and the reasons for the German success, such as it was, and how this paved the way for the final Allied victory, this was a readable, well presented and honest book. Fair to all strata of the British forces and a timely read just before the centenary of the event.
