By the summer of 1704 Louis XIV's vast armies dominated Europe. France defeated every alliance formed against her and Louis was poised to extend his frontier to the Rhine and install a French prince on the throne of Spain. Two men saved Europe from French military domination: the Duke of Marlborough and Prince Eugene of Savoy. Marlborough masterminded a brilliant campaign, working with Eugene to surprise the French invaders inside Germany. The rival armies clashed in August and the hitherto unbeaten French were utterly destroyed.

Blenheim was a major turning point in European history. Charles Spencer's narrative is drawn from original sources and moves seamlessly from the deliberations of kings and princes to the frontline soldiers. This is the battle that creates the enduring reputation of the British redcoat and shatters the image of the 'Sun King' and his mighty army.

Very clear and interesting description of the historical background and the battle itself, in a perhaps under discussed period in history. Very clear narration, which always helps,

Excellent

This history is a very good telling of one of Great Britain's greatest soldier.
The battle descriptions whilst complex are understood and make the imagination picture the movements of the various armies when listening to it on audio.
I trust it I get the book there will be illustrations showing the various tactics and battles played out that day.
A brilliant recounting of one of the most important people in our history.
Highly recommended this book to our 'Woke' generation.
