Turning the Tide of war examines the 50 Battles over the last 200 years that changed the course of modern history. From Napoleon’s conquest of Europe to the most decisive battles of the first and second world wars, to the more recent Vietnam, Afghanistan and Balkans wars, the Gulf War and the Disintegration of Yugoslavia.
Tim Newark explores how the twist of fate allowed forces to gain the upper hand such as the Allied defeat by Turkish troops in Gallipoli in 1915 or Pearl Harbour 1941, showing how superior forces were overwhelmed by smaller, well trained armies. Also included detailed strategic and battle plans.
