Do you think you know your military history? Try these questions (answers below) and see whether you have met your match:
1. Under which Emperor did the Roman Empire reach its greatest extent?
2. At which siege did Napoleon and Nelson fight on opposite sides?
3. Who leaked the 'Pentagon Papers'?
Arranged chronologically, the Military Quiz Book contains 1750 questions (and answers) covering a broad range of historical periods, from the ancient world to the present day, from personalities and quotations to battles and campaigns, from weapons to uniforms, and from the Screaming Eagles to oboe-equipped mosquitoes. Written by a former instructor in war studies at Sandhurst, the Military Quiz Book is an excellent book for professional quizzes, parlour game fun or just reading alone. Dip into it and don't be surprised to find yourself hours later still testing your knowledge as you learn about Roman commanders, medieval weaponry and whether Stalin really asked how many military divisions the Pope had.
