 This book aims to bring together some of Stuart Asquith’s work, in particular focussed on this era. Other books in the series will cover his writing on other eras.

The attractions of the period are described, along with nine accounts of key battles 1704-1760. These battles include

Battle of the Schellenberg (1704)

Battle of Ramillies (1706)

Battle of Sheriffmuir (1715)

Battle of Mollwitz (1741)

Battle of Soor (1745)      

Battle of Falkirk (1746)  

Battle of Plassey (1757)

Battle of Minden (1759)               

Battle of Warburg (1760)
