Reseña del libro "Wiltshire's Military Heritage (en Inglés)"
The landlocked county of Wiltshire, characterised by its high downland and wide valleys, has a rich military history that stretches back through the centuries. Evidence of Wiltshire's military heritage can be seen throughout the county with numerous buildings and other structures still standing today, from ancient hill forts and mediaeval castles to military bases used in two World Wars and the present day, as well as the army's training area on Salisbury Plain. Wiltshire's Military Heritage explores the long military history of the county, not only the battles that took place on its soil, including between warring Anglo-Saxon kingdoms and Danish invaders and during the English Civil War, but also the measures that were taken to defend it against possible attack. It also covers the heritage of the military units that were raised in the county and which were sent to fight in conflicts abroad. The Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry was originally raised in 1794 and fought in the Boer War and both World Wars, and is part of the Royal Wessex Yeomanry based in Wiltshire today. Wiltshire's airfields played a significant role in both World Wars, including during the Battle of Britain, and in recent years the town of Wootton Bassett became Royal Wootton Bassett because of its role in military funeral repatriations.This book will be of interest to all those who would like to know more about Wiltshire's remarkable military history.
