Fight the Good Fight Britain, the Army and the Coming of the First Worl 0 Academie de Temenos Ce le livre clairement et simplement ecrit est une defense eloquente de notre systeme de monarchie constitutionnelle. L'auteur examine la philosophie et le principe derriere (et essentiellement l'Anglais) le Service Britannique de Couronnement ou la Loi Divine est placee au-dessus de la loi de l'Etat. C'est un beau livre combinant la bourse, la poesie, l'amour de la loi et de la langue fine, et la comprehension profonde, dans un compte elegant et anime de tout ce qui est le meilleur et le plus vertueux dans la constitution non ecrite de la Grande-Bretagne. Great history and intriguing 'what ifs' Mallinson has focused on that first small British Expeditionary Force, capable and well trained, that deployed to France in mid-August and fought and was itself consumed in the bitter fighting of August-September-October . He asks some intriguing questions about how possible other deployments of the BEF might have resulted in a more decisive outcome for the Allies in the September fighting at the Battle of the Marne. Reads a counterpoint to some of the arguments made by Max Hastings in his recent book "Catastrophe ." _ *\_ How the British Army's experience in South Africa influenced its performance in the opening weeks of WW1 Excellent Story of the British Army in the Period Leading up to and How Those Events Influenced its performance in the opening weeks of the First World War. Mallinson has penned about the most even-handed account of Mons and Le Cateau that I have read. He adroitly avoids the pitfalls of partisanship and revisionism as respectively exhibited by his British and American predecessors. The author's professional experience adds immeasurably to the narrative, as he evaluates British Army, Corps, Division, Brigade, and Battalion commanders on their adherence to, and understanding of, existing doctrine as applied to continental warfare. Mallinson paints a justifiably laudable picture of BEF logisticians, which many other authors have ignored in order to concentrate on (and highlight) the combat actions that took place. Mallinson places himself in the first rank of Great War historians by including the German perspective, interweaving it expertly with events taking place on the British side. On the plus side, his writing style is both informative, fluid, and entertaining. Highly recommended. Am buying a second copy for a friend interested in military history. _ *\_ Excellent read Well written and easy to ines the large events with what was happening to the individual. Very well done, I would buy it all over again. _ *\_ A good military history book about the early involvement of United Kingdom at the Start of the "Great War" While reading this book I got the basic understanding of the British Empire and it's professional Army before their entry into World War (one). It is a English book, English views and spelling; other than that it is a good read to understand what was going on during this time. I would recommend this book to gain insight, and reasons that Britain entered the war. _ *\_ Well written This is well put together. Historical context and background are put together clearly and Mallinson brings his flowing writing style to what could be dry old stuff. What could be called accessible history but no less erudite for that. _ *\_ "Mallinson uncovers a litany of rivalry and miscalculation. With the Great War's centenary commemorations on the horizon, he has produced a must-read for anyone who wants to know how Britain practically stumbled into one of the bloodiest conflicts in history." (SUNDAY EXPRESS) "Formidable and page-turning... Mallinson's clinical examination of the 'what ifs' is as compelling as his account of the death of a small but professional army, scarficed to the incuriosity of our politicians and disinclination of military leaders to countenance any challange to what they be
