Since 1945 not a single year has passed without British troops being in action somewhere in the world. Yet despite this staggering statistic, this is the first book to cover the whole of this important period in British and Commonwealth military history. With chapters by Major General Julian Thompson on the Falklands, Air Marshal Ian Macfadyen on the Gulf War, Michael Dewar on Northern Ireland, and many others, this unique anthology is also illustrated with new photographs from the authors' personal collections as well as from the archives of the Imperial War Museum. Authoritative and readable, The Imperial War Museum Book of Modern Warfare is an essential addition to the military canon.
