Description
In 1783 the British army struggled home from North America in a shattered condition. It had acquitted itself well, but its regiments were now woefully understrength, and it was not until 1789 that they were again fit for service. Little more than three years later, Republican France declared war, and, apart from two short periods, the army was to be heavily engaged around the globe for the next 23 years. Beginning where Warrior 19 British Redcoat 1740-93 ends, Stuart Reid shows how the army was re-organised, re-equipped, re-trained and led from the bitter struggle in the West Indies to the final reckoning at Waterloo.
About Stuart Reid | Graham Turner

Stuart Reid was born in Aberdeen in 1954. His lifelong interest in military history has led to a longstanding involvement in historical re-enactment, which has broadened into work as a military advisor-cum-troop-instructor for film companies. His previous titles for Osprey include a three-volume work in the Men-at-Arms series on King George's Army 1740-1793 and Warrior 21 Highland Clansman 1689-1746.

Graham Turner was born in Harrow in 1964, the son of the respected aviation artist Michael Turner, with whom he also shares an interest in motorsport illustration. Graham has been a freelance artist since 1984; specialising in historical and military subjects, particularly of the medieval period, and has illustrated several Osprey titles including Campaign 44 Pavia 1525, Men-at-Arms 310 German Medieval Armies 1000-1300 and 320 Armies of the Caliphates 862-1098. He lives with his wife and two children in Buckinghamshire.
