Continuing the series of reviving the exquisite notebooks of the historian Major Archibald Becke, his account of the Battle of Hanau has led to a completely new understanding of the battle which challenges the usual accounts. Gone are the wildly inaccurate strengths of the opposing armies, allowing a much better understanding of why the battle played out the way it did. The responsibility for the Allied defeat is thoroughly examined and concluded.
