  • 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.

  • Doornkop, May 1900
    Second Doornkop, May 1900 Four years later the British were back at Doornkop. That is, if one presumes the Rhodesian raiders, acting in the private interest of Rhodes and his fellow conspirators to overthrow the ZAR government, were “British”; and if one assumes a rather loose definition of the battlefield to be described. Fig 62: Boers in the field, this group at Spioenkop in the Natal Colony. Fig 63: British troops take aim, this photo taken at Colesberg in the Cape Colony. Pics: ABWM. May 1900 was towards the end of the first year of war. The South African War, also known as the Second or Anglo Boer War had started badly for Britain with a series of setbacks in October and November 1899 that saw British forces besieged at Ladysmith, Kimberley as well as Mafekeng and followed by Black Week, a series of calamities in the Cape and Natal during December 1899: Stormberg (10 December), Magersfontein (11 December) and Colenso (15 December). Over the New Year the British had recovered their posture and early in the year they had launched a general counter-offensive in both the Cape and Natal. By March Bloemfontein had fallen and Imperial forces were poised to move on the ZAR, which they reached in May. “Second Doornkop”, is a controversial battle, one which several writers have condemned as unnecessary. Field Marshal Lord Michael Carver writes in The National Army Museum Book of the Boer War that Lt Gen Ian Hamilton “engaged in what many thought a needlessly direct frontal attack. 95 ” Pakenham goes further saying the attack, when made, took some of its observers aback: “Then to the surprise of one of the brigadiers, (Maj Gen Hutton) and one of the correspondents (Churchill), Hamilton launched his two infantry brigades on a four mile wide frontal attack on the ridge.” 96 Both statements need interrogation; suffice to say the attack forms an integral part of the greater battle of Johannesburg that took place over two days in late May 1900.

  • Harashim 2010
    Harashim The Quarterly Newsletter of the Australian & New Zealand Masonic Research Council ISSN 1328-2735 Issue 49 January 2010 First Prestonian Lecture in Australia John Wade at Discovery Lodge of Research Laurelbank Masonic Centre, in the inner Sydney suburbs, was the venue for the presentation of the first Prestonian Lecture in Australia by a current Prestonian Lecturer. Discovery Lodge of Research held a special meeting there on Wednesday 6 January to receive the Master of Quatuor Coronati Lodge No. 2076 EC, the editor of Ars Quatuor Coronatorum, and the Prestonian Lecturer for 2009—all in the person of Sheffield University’s Dr John Wade. Some 37 brethren attended the lodge, including the Grand Master, MWBro Dr Greg Levenston, and representatives from Newcastle and Canberra. WM Ewart Stronach introduced Bro Wade, outlining his academic and Masonic achievements, gave a brief account of the origin of Prestonian Lectures, and closed the lodge. Ladies and other visitors were then admitted, swelling the audience to 54, for a brilliant rendition of the lecture: ‘“Go and do thou likewise”, English Masonic Processions from the 18th to the 20th Centuries’. Bro Wade made good use of modern technology with a PowerPoint presentation, including early film footage of 20th-century processions, supplementing it with his own imitation of a fire-and-brimstone preacher, and a spirited rendition of the first verse of The Entered Apprentice’s Song. (continued on page 16) From left: GM Dr Greg Levenston, Tom Hall, WM Ewart Stronach, Ian Shanley, Dr John Wade, Malcolm Galloway, Dr Bob James, Tony Pope, Neil Morse, Andy Walker Issue 49 photo from John page Wade 1 About Harashim Harashim, Hebrew for Craftsmen, is a quarterly newsletter published by the Australian and New Zealand Masonic Research Council (10 Rose St, Waipawa 4210, New Zealand) in January, April, July and October each year.

Cumbria Fire and Rescue Service (CFRS) operates from four geographical localities, each having its own challenges and risk. An overview of each of these localities is taken and then built upon in a more detailed review of each individual fire station area. The individual station risk profiles detail the current operational resources available on each fire station. Details are also be provided in relation to the actual availability of these resources over a recent twelve month period. The types and number of operational responses made by the fire crews on every Fire Station is assessed and an analysis of the casualties as a result of fire or road traffic collisions has been provided. Our prevention activity in terms of the number of Home Fire Safety Visits (HFSV) carried out within each Ward area is considered and all of this information will be looked at critically in order to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our operational response.
