THE FRONT LINES OF HISTORY IN COLOUR PHOTOGRAPHS

KEN AND DENISE GUEST


The Battle of Culloden in 1746 was the last fullscale land battle to be fought on British soil.

While almost every other European country has become a battleground since then, for the last 250 years Britaln has been spared the horrors of invasion and occupation. Yet all over England and Scotland there are traces of our brutal past. There are tangible signs like monuments to the dead or the bullet holes in the door of Alton church. Local place names like Bloody Meadow keep alive the memory of the hideous slaughter that followed the defeat of several medieval armies.

In 1995 English Heritage published a register of battlefields, focusing attention on 44 sites. Intended to provide guidance for those Involved in conservation, the register identifies the geographical location and highlights key features which deserve special care because of their historic significance. includes all of these historically important engagements and, employing the same criteria, covers the ten greatest battles In Scotland from Stirling Bridge and the war against Edward I to Culloden and the defeat of the Jacobite cause.

is unlike all previous accounts of the battles that shaped our history. By combining eyewitness descriptions with the researches of modern re-enactors, reveals what it was like for the ordinary soldiers. Over the course of seven centuries of warfare, weapons and tactics changed considerably. But for the men in the frontline, and the women and children often accompanying an army into battle, the experience was disagreeably similar: long marches over dirt roads, bad weather, illness and disease; the terror of close quarter battle and the agonising medical treatment that was the only hope of survival for the wounded.
