B. George is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book aims to explore and interpret the significant military events that shaped English history, focusing on how these battles influenced societal and political landscapes over time. At the start of the text, the author provides a preface outlining his intentions, emphasizing the value of understanding battles not just as isolated events but as critical junctures in the continuum of history. He acknowledges the challenges faced by historians in conveying the complexities of military history to a broader audience that may lack technical expertise. The opening also suggests a commitment to delivering narratives that highlight the significance of battles, while understanding the socio-political context that frames them, setting the stage for a detailed examination of key conflicts such as Hastings, Bannockburn, and others that defined not only military strategy but also national identity.
