This Pen & Sword's Battleground title is a handy travel guide to the battle of Blenheim with splendid b/w and color illustrations and a good account of the battle, the campaign and a walking tour. I particularly like the annotated in situ photographs which highlight the command difficulties on a plain. With a better vantage point, Tallard's misallocation of his infantry might have been corrected and defeat turned into victory. If I had to choose between taking the Osprey title or this booklet on a tour; I'd pick this one. Unfortunately, the maps of both titles do not drill down far enough, so there is still a need for an accurate battle map. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

A detailed and easily followed guidebook that tells the story of the Duke of Marlborough's victory at the Battle of Blenheim in 1704 and takes the reader across the Bavarian battlefield, rediscovering the lanes and by-ways tramped by the soldiers of 300 years ago. The author's skilful use of maps, his detailed knowledge of the ground, and his deep military understanding combine to give the reader an unprecedented feel for the twists and turns of this exciting and complex battle.
