Osprey Military Journal Volume 1 - 2 : 'Clear the Way' : The Irish at Fredericksburg

The charge of the Irish Brigade at Fredericksburg, the fierce defiance of the defenders at Bastogne in 1944, Richard III losing both his crown and his life at Bosworth Field in 1485 and the arrival of the first US Marines in Vietnam. Rene Chartrand also looks at the first siege of Quebec, later overshadowed by Wolfe's efforts, and Arthur Harman examines the wargaming possibilities offered by the Salamanca Forts in 1812.
