SCOTLAND and the BRITISH ARMY C.1700-C.1750
SCOTLAND AND THE BRITISH ARMY c.1700-c.1750 By VICTORIA HENSHAW A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The historiography of Scotland and the British army in the eighteenth century largely concerns the suppression of the Jacobite risings – especially that of 1745-6 – and the growing assimilation of Highland soldiers into its ranks during and after the Seven Years War. However, this excludes the other roles and purposes of the British army, the contribution of Lowlanders to the British army and the military involvement of Scots of all origin in the British army prior to the dramatic increase in Scottish recruitment in the 1750s. This thesis redresses this imbalance towards Jacobite suppression by examining the place of Scotland and the role of Highland and Lowland Scots in the British army during the first half of the eighteenth century, at a time of change fuelled by the Union of 1707 and the Jacobite rebellions of the period. -

Mughals at War: Babur, Akbar and the Indian Military Revolution, 1500 - 1605
Mughals at War: Babur, Akbar and the Indian Military Revolution, 1500 - 1605 A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrew de la Garza Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: John F. Guilmartin, Advisor; Stephen Dale; Jennifer Siegel Copyright by Andrew de la Garza 2010 Abstract This doctoral dissertation, Mughals at War: Babur, Akbar and the Indian Military Revolution, examines the transformation of warfare in South Asia during the foundation and consolidation of the Mughal Empire. It emphasizes the practical specifics of how the Imperial army waged war and prepared for war—technology, tactics, operations, training and logistics. These are topics poorly covered in the existing Mughal historiography, which primarily addresses military affairs through their background and context— cultural, political and economic. I argue that events in India during this period in many ways paralleled the early stages of the ongoing “Military Revolution” in early modern Europe. The Mughals effectively combined the martial implements and practices of Europe, Central Asia and India into a model that was well suited for the unique demands and challenges of their setting. ii Dedication This document is dedicated to John Nira. iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor, Professor John F. Guilmartin and the other members of my committee, Professors Stephen Dale and Jennifer Siegel, for their invaluable advice and assistance. I am also grateful to the many other colleagues, both faculty and graduate students, who helped me in so many ways during this long, challenging process. -
Confederate Arms Are Not Rare
foster_rev 9/23/04 2:44 PM Page 48 Confederate Arms are Not Rare Charles L. Foster While the program says I am going to talk about an overview of Confederate arms, I would rather title my talk, “CONFEDERATE ARMS ARE NOT RARE”. I also considered calling this presentation “SEVENTY THOUSAND”. Let me suggest some reasons for this talk. I hope that I am not only speaking to you here today but also through you to new collectors because I want to invite more participa- tion in my field of interest. However, I do hear a lament from some who are interested in Confederate history that samples of arms from the great “Late Unpleasantness” are cost pro- hibitive. Indeed many primary Confederate arms are now beyond the reach of all but a very few. Today, I intend to sug- gest that collecting opportunities still exist. Let me come back to my title “CONFEDERATE ARMS ARE NOT RARE” or the shorter “SEVENTY THOUSAND”. Now, in keeping with our own political season I wish July of 1863 was a month of pronounced tragedy for to use a little “spin”by enlarging the definition of what is col- the south. The casualties were staggering. Lee’s army, THE lectible for the Southern enthusiast. To help new collectors ARMY OF NORTHERN VIRGINIA, had ended its second get started, I compiled the following list of common and still northern offensive. After three days of fighting at affordable firearms that, I believe, fought 80% of the war Gettysburg, a wagon train some seventeen miles long car- because they were the principle arms carried and were avail- ried the wounded on a painful trek back to Virginia.
