About This Item
(Subject: Battles, Battlefields & Campaigns) Colvin examines decisive battles throughout history which affected the final outcome of a war and beyond. From Salamis in 479 BC, when Themistocles' Athenians defeated Xerxes' Persians, through Hastings and Trafalgar to the major conflicts of the 20th century, he assesses the wider implications of each battle, placing it in the context of human history. The Battle of Britain, for example, was a turning-point in the Second World War, preventing the invasion of Britain and German hegemony in Europe. A clearly argued, accessible work illuminating a complex subject.
