BFBS Forces News presents Great British Battle Commanders hosted by Professor Michael Clarke, Sitrep’s defence analyst, assessing the leadership and strategy of the Duke of Wellington with the best-selling author of the Sharpe and Last Kingdom novels Bernard Cornwell.
The interview is recorded in Wellington’s former office in Horse Guards, now used as the office of the General Officer Commanding HQ London District.

Or are there some essential truths about command and human nature which ultimately make the difference on the battlefield?
