  • THE BRITISH ARMY in the LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 By
    ‘FAIRLY OUT-GENERALLED AND DISGRACEFULLY BEATEN’: THE BRITISH ARMY IN THE LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 by ANDREW ROBERT LIMM A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY. University of Birmingham School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law October, 2014.

ABSTRACT The history of the British Army in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars is generally associated with stories of British military victory and the campaigns of the Duke of Wellington. An intrinsic aspect of the historiography is the argument that, following British defeat in the Low Countries in 1795, the Army was transformed by the military reforms of His Royal Highness, Frederick Duke of York. This thesis provides a critical appraisal of the reform process with reference to the organisation, structure, ethos and learning capabilities of the British Army and evaluates the impact of the reforms upon British military performance in the Low Countries, in the period 1793 to 1814, via a series of narrative reconstructions. This thesis directly challenges the transformation argument and provides a re-evaluation of British military competency in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars.

"Canadians have shown, on more than one memorable occasion, that in military spirit they are not wanting."—The Political Destiny of Canada, by Goldvrin Smith, D.C.L WILLIAMSON & CO., 5 KING STREET WEST. London: W. H. Allen & Co., 13 Waterloo Place, S.W. 1891. Entered according to the Act of Parliament of Canada, in the year one thousand eight hundred and ninety-one, by Williamson & Co. , at the Department of Agriculture. BY GRACIOUS PERMISSION TO HIS EXCELLENCY LORD STANLEY OF PRESTON, BY THE AUTHOR. PEEFACE. ANADIANS, if they know their country, do not know their countrymen so intimately as they might. The histories of Canada are numerous and elaborate, but the same cannot be said with regard to the histories of Canadians. The remark refers more particu- larly to those of our countrymen who have entered the naval and military services of the Empire, and have gone abroad. In visiting the chief libraries it was found that information concerning the subject of this little book is surprisingly scant. For this reason the writer resolved to undertake the pleasant duty of gathering from authentic sources such details as exist. Though in the course of the time occupied, nearly three years, he has travelled over twelve thousand miles in search of trustworthy testi- mony, that testimony is unfortunately incomplete.

  • At Water's Edge: Britain, Napoleon, and the World, 1793-1815
    AT WATER’S EDGE: BRITAIN, NAPOLEON, AND THE WORLD, 1793-1815 ______________________________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ______________________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ______________________________________________________________________________ by Christopher T. Golding May 2017 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Gregory J. W. Urwin, Advisory Chair, Department of History Dr. Travis Glasson, Department of History Dr. Rita Krueger, Department of History Dr. Jeremy Black, External Member, University of Exeter (UK) © Copyright 2017 by Christopher T. Golding All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the influence of late eighteenth-century British imperial and global paradigms of thought on the formation of British policy and strategy during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. It argues that British imperial interests exerted a consistent influence on British strategic decision making through the personal advocacy of political leaders, institutional memory within the British government, and in the form of a traditional strain of a widely-embraced British imperial-maritime ideology that became more vehement as the conflict progressed. The work can be broken into two basic sections. The first section focuses on the formation of strategy within the British government of William Pitt the Younger during the French Revolutionary Wars from the declaration of war in February 1793 until early 1801. During this phase of the Anglo-French conflict, British ministers struggled to come to terms with the nature of the threat posed by revolutionary ideology in France, and lacked strategic consistency due to acute cabinet-level debates over continental versus imperial strategies. The latter half of the work assesses Britain’s response to the challenges presented by Napoleonic France.

  • Kunmanggur, Legend and Leadership a Study of Indigenous Leadership and Succession Focussing on the Northwest Region of the North
    KUNMANGGUR , LEGEND AND LEADERSHIP A STUDY OF INDIGENOUS LEADERSHIP AND SUCCESSION FOCUSSING ON THE NORTHWEST REGION OF THE NORTHERN TERRITORY OF AUSTRALIA Bill Ivory Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Charles Darwin University 2009 Declaration This is to certify that this thesis comprises only my original work towards the Ph.D., except where indicated, that due acknowledgement has been made in the text to all other materials used, and that this thesis is less than 100,000 words in length excluding Figures, Tables and Appendices. Bill Ivory 2009 ii Acknowledgements I wish to thank my supervisors Kate Senior, Diane Smith and Will Sanders. They have been extremely supportive throughout this research process with their expert advice, enthusiasm and encouragement. A core group of Port Keats leaders supported this thesis project. They continually encouraged me to record their stories for the prosperity of their people. These people included Felix Bunduck, Laurence Kulumboort, Bernard Jabinee, Patrick Nudjulu, Leo Melpi, Les Kundjil, Aloyisius Narjic, Bede Lantjin, Terence Dumoo, Ambrose Jongmin. Mathew Pultchen, Gregory Mollinjin, Leo Melpi, Cassima Narndu, Gordon Chula and many other people. Sadly, some of these leaders passed away since the research commenced and I hope that this thesis is some recognition of their extraordinary lives. Boniface Perdjert, senior traditional owner and leader for the Kardu Diminin clan was instrumental in arranging for me to attend ceremonies and provided expert information and advice. He was also, from the start, very keen to support the project. Leon Melpi told me one day that he and his middle-aged generation are „anthropologists‟ and he is right.
