Author Information
Charles James Forrester is a military historian with a PhD from the University of Leeds, UK, where he studied with Professor John Gooch, and a master’s degree from the University of South Africa, Pretoria, where he studied with Professor Dion Fourie. He received his BA in European Studies from the University of Limerick, Ireland, and also went to St. Benet’s Hall, at the University of Oxford, where he studied a wide range of subjects, including history. His earlier research was on operational strategy and the motorisation of the British Army before 1940. His more recent research interests focus upon Montgomery, 21st Army Group, and General E.H. Barker. As well as his MA on motorisation and his PhD on command, he is also the author of an article on Montgomery’s role in the creation of the British 21st Army Group’s combined arms doctrine for the final assault on Germany.
