Book Description
Custer’s wasn’t the only one! A “last stand” remains one of the most compelling wartime scenarios, where outnumbered warriors fight on, hoping to defy the odds and win the day. This best-selling collection gathers 13 examples of such battles, which often influence entire campaigns. Alongside less well-known cases, appear some of the most unforgettable campaigns: Napoleon at Waterloo, the Alamo, Little Big Horn, Rorke’s Drift, and Arnhem Bridge. “…part of the…Cassell Military Classics series…hair-raising stories of military skirmishes throughout history.”–Library Journal.
