A groundbreaking study by Sir Hew Strachan that challenges the traditional view of the British Army as a politically neutral institution. Examining its history from 1660 to the present, Strachan reveals how the Army has always been an inherently political entity, deeply embedded in the fabric of the state and intimately involved in policy formation. This detailed analysis covers civil-military relations, the impact of empire, and the Army's role in domestic stability, making it essential reading for military historians and political scientists alike.
