The 95th Rifles - Wellington's sharpshooters - first into battle and last out.

Acclaimed military writer Mark Urban explores the extraordinary story of these military pioneers; the toughest and deadliest infantrymen in Wellington's Army.

Immortalised in Bernard Cornwell's Sharpe novels, the 95th Rifles were skirmishers tasked with acting as Wellington's advanced guard. It was new technology for the warfare of the time: they travelled light, moved rapidly, armed with the accurate rifles that would allow them to take shots from distance. The 95th Rifles were the prototype of the modern infantryman.

Mark Urban's fascinating history of the 95th is a must-listen for anyone interested in military history.

From the author of Task Force Black, Big Boys' Rules and The Tank War.
