| SUPPLYING THE NEW MODEL ARMY- Logistics, arms, ammunition, clothing, victuals and the matériel of war, 1645-1646 | | |
| Abram, Andrew. 314p 6 b/w illustrations, 10 b/w photos, 47 tables. The orthodox view of modern writers that armies of the 17th century relied more upon plunder and free quarter is highly pervasive, yet more recent research suggests that during the British Civil Wars there were increasing changes to this custom. The creation, politics, religious identity, officer corps and military campaigns (especially the Battle of Naseby) of the New Model Army, commanded by Sir Thomas Fairfax, have been the focus for various writers, however little attention has been paid to the supply and logistics of this force. The result has been a critical gap in the understanding of the recruitment, victualling, ordnance, ammunition, clothing, arming, and logistics employed by the Committee of the Army in both the initial establishment of the New Model and its subsequent campaigns. £29.50 | | |
