Omslag till Ian F W Beckett: Citizen Soldiers and the British Empire, 1837–1902 (PDF)

The British amateur military tradition of raising auxiliary forces for home defence long preceded the establishment of a standing army. This was a model that was widely emulated in British colonies. This volume of essays seeks to examine the role of citizen soldiers in Britain and its empire during the Victorian period.
