History of War in Maps

Anyone interested in historical maps, plus aHow the helped in a number of battles, shouldFind this a good read

At 25 pounds for this short book, I was disappointed with it. Each page gives an illustration of the battle not every battle is a map, with a very brief summary of the battle and outcome. For me this book fails to live up to its expectations. Most of the maps are difficult to see and are copies of so called original ones of each battle, or a picture of the battle, such as Trafalgar, all there is, is a picture of a line of British Ships, no plan of how the battle unfolded. Hence 2 stars out of 5.
