Going chronologically from the Ancient Greeks onwards I described to some extent how each battle was won or lost by particular decisions, tactics, technology or fortune. But the aim of each main narrative will be to place each battle in the context of the overall history of Europe. New series on the Interwar Years 1918-1945 begins 18th July 2025 Hosted on Acast.
